Economic Research Output

How much value do people get from economic research? The government supports a lot of it, but is the production of academic economic papers really a public good? My research on water rights and water transfers is of course included. I thought of this again after reading this.

Bottom Line: I like the way economists think, but I am not sure if it is in the public interest to subsidize their output.
