Hi Sterling:

No, you are not paying for it twice. The government (we) pay for the
research, but do not pay for the publication costs. I do not think that
Science has page charges for authors, so someone has to pay the people who
run the magazine, print it, and distribute it (real jobs). Also, some of
these magazines actually are in the business to make money (though know
that only from second-hand experience).

This, however, does not mean that I understand/support the amount of money
that Sciencedirect charges as I do not know their cost structure.
