I think it is more the source of their income that they are looking towards. If the government, in the form of direct paychecks or the form of grants for research or in the form of salaries from colleges, they know which side of the bread the butter is on. Many people take umbrage with the way GDP is calculated because they use government spending as additive to the economy when it is actually a negative. That was the big Keynesian boo-boo, IMHO. :)
