They're heroes for saying they want to cut science funding, access to abortion, and sex education?

How is doing any of those things going to fix inflation?

Yes, cut money to frivolous spending and focus on spending the few dollars they got to improve their country, not just a few life science majors

Cutting $400 million to fix an $80+ billion dollar budget is like cutting a $0.40 expense to fix an $80 bill.

It's also incredibly absurd to insist that science only benefits scientists while using the internet.

Buckle in because you're getting what you voted for.
