Yes it does. It provides programming that I will actually watch - as opposed to the crap that commercial television provides. The same goes for commercial radio vs public radio. Besides, the amount of taxpayers money spent on quality educational programming is under $1 per year. Big whoop-load of money for something so good. Or, maybe I can just go to Taco Bell instead.
