The real problem is that you, and others, think that it is the business of the Federal Government to provide funding. It is not!
Oh, yes it is, mate. That's what government is for, inter alia - to make available to all people the benefits that flow from research, and if the research isn't properly funded, or haphazardly funded, those benefits don't come. Enough of this fake small government, libertarian nonsense, please!
