The United States Constitution gave the power to Congress to create laws pertaining to patents. Under Article I, section 8, it reads, "Congress shall have power… to promote the progress of science and useful arts, by securing for limited times to authors and inventors the exclusive right to their respective writings and discoveries."

Government could give away their share of ownership of the patent. If they did more than that, it would be taking. It would definitively be a case of demprogs killing and eating the goose that lays gold eggs.
