SLC Marched for Science!

Tournout was 3-5 k as far as I could tell. The speeches were pretty disappointing and their volume was way underamplified. But we came out and supported science funding and education in one of the most backwards states in the union!

He did not gut science funding, it stayed roughly the same, with decreases in defence r&d and small increases to the nih and cdc

Science funding? Does science stop when it doesn't get a handout from the government?

It doesn't stop, but government agencies provide by far the most grant money to fund research

Get off the government teat. Cutting government funding is the best thing to happen. Private investment is much better and greater.
