A professional student and future freeloader in the making.

If you can't figure out what scientific research has contributed to the well-being of our great country, your sense of reality is a bit wanting.

Thank you for making your illucid postion and open hostility toward knowledge so plain for everyone to see, though.

Maybe someday when you grow up, and if you get a real job, you may have the privilege of paying taxes and you'll understand the hostility. You want to discover some new element on Venus? Great, now go ask Bill Gates to pay for your project, not the US taxpayer.

BTW - you've already established and illustrated the classic elitist attitude. I'm sure you'll do well groveling for grants.
