Pork Barrel Spending

The University of Illinois was won a $10 million dollar federal grant. What for? From CNN.com:

A team of researchers won a $10 million federal grant to provide the first complete sequence of the swine genome -- a genetic map they say could help farmers produce better hogs, give consumers tastier pork and ultimately benefit human health.

What, even tastier pork? Now that's government spending I'm down with. Hell, you can even raise my taxes for that.
