We could easily 10x the funding and 5x the manpower we throw at STEM research if we actually cared what they produced.

NSF grants distribute 8.5 billion dollars a year, which is less than Major League Baseball (and its Congressionally granted monopoly) makes. The US Congress has directed 75 billion dollars in aid to Ukraine to date.

That would be reasonable, which isn't the point.
