I would argue that this model can also used by governments. If the US government funds the journal, they could limit the money donation to US scientists.
But even today not all grant money comes from government bodies. There are likely researchers who only use government funding and who might be weary of third party funding but today most researchers do take some third party funding so I don’t see the big difference to taking a grant from a nongovernment source.
