There’s no way upkeep and pay for two years is anywhere near 818 million.

Even factoring in funding research and acquisition of new exhibits.

The Smithsonian that categorized "white culture" on a list meant to be an insult, but it was all awesome things that western civilization was built on

You are correct. I forget the exact figure but I think it was 300 million.

If they're not open... Then what the fuck do they need so much money for. If you're not running anything beyond security, you don't need that much money. There's no way in hell they have to pay rent.

Not just American history. "Patterns of evidence: the Exodus" is an amazing documentary.
