In fairness, not all grant money breeds evil. The proof that you're using the internet itself is proof of that: it began as a DoD (ARPA) funded project in the 1960s.

This may be true as to grant money. And yet grant money from government is a huge support in the maintenance of Tyrant Government. The Grant Conveyer Belt is always a conduit of favor and a source of lucrative corruption. Grant money, no matter the merit good or bad, is an unconstitutional transfer of wealth. And no one can ever say that the ever expanding Empire of Grant Money is the limited government modeling conducive to American presumptions of Liberty.
