And they ripped out funding for pediatric cancer research. $250 million.... or around 0.05% of president Musk's net worth. Why do repubs hate kids with cancer?
Also 900 million will not be going to North Carolina hurricane relief.
Cold heartless bastards
Assuming I did my math correctly these two things would have been a combined total of .002% of the federal budget.
Can't buy a B2 with hurricane relief.
You mean the state that put this asshole in power?
Leopards getting fat here.
why can't north carolina use hurricane insurance instead of relying on the feds?
Yeah, those people living in the (checks notes) mountains in (checks notes again) inland North Carolina knew the risks of not getting Hurricane insurance!
Technically it was a tropical storm. Case denied.
Why can't the government take care of it's people instead of making them rely on private insurance? It's the government. They should be doing things like taking care of their citizens during times of crisis.
this isn't something unpredictable there are consistent tropical storms in North Carolina as with most of the south east United states.
Ummmmm this would be largely flood insurance and that’s a federal program.
Because they're not profitable.
They want to strip away everything that reduces infant mortality, so that people start having more kids again since so many of them will die young.
Then later they give it back, and since they already took away the right to abortion... Boom, population explosion and a bunch of poor kids are born to later be exploited in factories and wars.
Whoa whoa whoa you can't go around funding kids healthcare. Then they are gonna become adult voters who expect more free healthcare.
You want kids who get to adulthood on the skin of their teeth, or kids who don't get to adulthood at all. There's no in-between.
