Feds Spent $412,930 to Apply Feminist Theories to Study of Glaciers
(CNSNews.com) – Sen. James Lankford (R-Okla.) released his second “Federal Fumbles” report [1]on Monday, citing 100 examples of the misuse of taxpayer dollars through government spending and regulation.
One example: The National Science Foundation (NSF), the report said, spent $412,930 to fund a study that argued "that scientists should use femnist theories and a feminist point of view to sudy glaciers and the relationship between glaciers and humans."
Other examples include a regulation that requires convenience stores that accept food stamps to increase their offerings of "healthy" foods (such as "tofu" and "catfish"), more than $3 million spent for a soap opera to raise awareness about AIDS, and a university spending taxpayer dollars for custom snuggies.
