National Science Foundation causing online porn shortage!

From Trak.in news:
A shortage of online sex looms
A six fold increase in employee misconduct investigations, particularly involving workers accessing pornography from their government computers, has been observed at the National Science Foundation (NSF), a taxpayer-funded foundation in the US that doles out billions of dollars of scientific research grants.
[...]
[R]ecords showed that one senior executive spent at least 331 days looking at pornography on his government computer and chatting online with nude or partially clad women without being detected.
This is terrible! It’s bad enough these tax-fattened bureaucrats act to politicize science, but now they’re stealing our net porn!
Most libertarian theories of justice stress restitution as opposed to punishment. In this case particularly, I agree. This “senior executive” should give back all of the online porn he took. It’s only fair.

Oh, man. I thought I had written a good post and then I saw SCIENCE MAN PORN!
331 days? Is that accumulated hours or just daily access? Cause if it’s the former, hoo-ah.

I don’t know, it isn’t clear what the sixfold increase was measured against, even. Was it 331 days of porn in a single year? If so, that guy really needs a holiday!
In any case, that’s a whole lot of porn that’s been taken, and which should be given back.

That’s something else we need to do to prepare for when the shit hits the fan. Download as much porn as possible!

I am happy to see that the stimulus package is stimulating someone. Amazingly enough, in a recession even the bureaucrats work harder.

Oh gawd, don’t say “package” that way…

What kind of porn did he take? Think on this…you just may not want him to give it back.
You might want to give him a “public service” medal for keeping the intertubes clean by removing images of people 5 foot square, the front row of a nude bingo hall, etc, etc
. Hopefully, he took all of the hi-def porn…Ewwwhhh.
