National Geographic Photos the Focus of Federal Study

Didn't teenage boys used to do that for free?

Some of the toughest sequester spending decisions involve taxpayer-financed research, where funding today can produce huge benefits tomorrow — but can the government really afford to spend $227,437 to study pictures of animals in National Geographic magazines?

That is one of the 164 grants the National Science Foundation approved last week as it sought to balance its research mission with less funding that means the independent agency will award about 1,000 fewer projects with taxpayer money this year.

Yeah, well, leave that sort of risk to those spending their own money. We've seen Obama's choices; contributors.
