American Taxpayers Pay for Grant: Chinese Prostitutes, Alcohol Abuse, and HIV

The headline "U.S. Will Pay $2.6 Million to Train Chinese Prostitutes to Drink Responsibly on the Job" caught my eye which I hope would interest American taxpayers as well. The story was just reported and it is a legitimate story, as unlikely as it seems, though the recently released CNSNews version does not highlight, but mentions, that the study was awarded in November of last year. I know it may be difficult for the politicians to find things to cut in the strapped U.S. economy but shouldn't this type of thing be on the chopping block when the American economy is not doing well? The study is being conducted by a Wayne State professor. I do not know if any one noticed but Americans right down the road might need studies to get their flailing American car manufacturing industry back on the right track. Shouldn't they be a higher priority than Chinese prostitutes?
