Before universities became so expensive - yes, there was a time when they weren't - it made sense for research funding to come from our taxes.

But, if university is going to be so expensive, then we the people, and especially the students are being double-taxed - first for the education, and then to support research.

The irony of ironies is that all that research is going to put all those students that paid for it out of a job!
