My point was that the comment I replied to is using USD while LHC most likely do their budget in EUR or even Franc. So clear indication that the author of said comment probably lives in the US, who I don't think is funding the LHC. But to answer your question, I absolutely care about the budgets for the military or the police, or any entity really, as long as it belongs to my country. What the US spends it's money on I couldn't care less, although it sucks the government there is so reluctant to actually pay for services to the humans living there and instead spend the money on military. But in the end, not my business so I don't really care either way.
