    The White House said the savings would be reinvested in more research,

    You already know this is a bald-faced lie. It’s going to go into the billionaire tax cut fund.

      they’re cutting all this shit… ‘saving’ all this money…

      yet somehow, the deficit will continue to grow, and national debt will pile-on… both to historic levels before this episode comes to a close.

    Figures that it’s basically a population map. The hospitals that serve the most people will suffer the worst cuts to their research budgets.

    Wonder how the Whitehouse plans to “reinvest” these savings. My bet is on more tax cuts for the rich.

    cracks me up as this is something that effects the rich equally to the poor. The whole system of basic research can’t be done privately and its just willfully existing with more primitive technology than we otherwise would have.
