Half of Congress is filled with nitwits, crooks, now belong in the (Corrupted Bastards good ole boys and girls club). They don't go in Government anymore to serve us most it's to serve them while they suck the blood from taxpayers FOR LIFE

"The National Science Foundation was established in 1950 by public law 89-507, which frames the mission of NSF as follows: To promote the progress of science; to advance the national health, prosperity, and welfare; to secure the national defense…. Here the argument appears to blend Article 1, Section 8 with broader Constitutional purposes."

That's an unConstitutional waste of funds and overreach of power, just like almost everything the US Government has done since Mr Lincoln was elected.
