Tell me about it. I worked in academia at a woke public university. One could get a grant to study how a vegan diet and hip hop music help Guatemalan lesbians conquer depression...just as long as the subject matter doesn't help America.
ANnnnnnnd - Anthony Cuomo is on TV now - "We need spoons! This is a crisis! Who chooses who doesn't get spoons when we really need them! YOU tell me who won't get a spoon!" and then, later.....
Reporter: "Govt says they have provided you a supply of spoons."
Cuomo: "Yes, we have the excess spoons in storage."
Reporter: "Why haven't they been sent out to the ones who need them?"
But if you looked, I'd bet you'd find some useless academic wasted resources doing that very study.
The lure of grant money exerts a powerful force.
