What is a God particle, where is it

Scientists have been trying to find it for the last 20 month in Switzerland.
Why is finding and understanding this particle so important to physicists
What will be accomplished if and when they find it
Is it another waste of tax payers money

The Higgs Boson is the last major particle that we need to find in order to validate the standard Model for our understanding of the structure of atoms. scientists believe that the Higgs Boson is what gives other particles their mass.

Is it important? Maybe. We have moved past classical mechanics, understanding how large objects react, and are trying to figure out quantum mechanics. This can lead to breakthroughs in communications, computers, nanotechnology...

Just because you don't want to know how the universe was created doesn't mean we don't. Its not your money they're using.
