Military money for scientific research...should we all be asking what else the military are funding...?

throughout history, many discoveries are funded through government and military research, including private research grants. The results are positive if you consider the advances since world war two. We have plastics which changed our society in all the products we now use,including your computer components. Consider also the technology in computer chips that hold so much date on a thing hardly bigger than a postage stamp.Medical research gave us penicillin and many other medical break throughs.The down side is that we can now destroy the world with nuclear devices.But we do have nuclear power plants, if the greenies will let us build them.We don't have the right to know everything, at least not up front. There is national security to consider, but eventually, all things are revealed, and we as a society benefit.I understand your concern, but exercise patience, and it will be sorted out.
