The budget has a 20% decrease to DOE office of science, 20% cut to NIH. NASA also gets a cut. This will have a huge negative effect on the lab. Crazy, juts crazy. He also wants to cut NEA and PBS, this may not seem like a big deal but they get very little money and do great things.

I guess you're one of the young ones who didn't get shafted by the new and improved private contractor LLNS and LANS otherwise you wouldn't be asking scooby that question. You will someday regret allowing the government to groom you into their self centered "work for life slave labor workforce". Oh and please don't take your social security until you are 70+. We need to leave those funds to secure the socialist democratic voter base by subsidizing the welfare system. thanks
...secure the socialist democratic voter base...
So the government has adopted the strategies of the full-blooded capitalist private sector while driving society to the brink of "socialism". Neat trick!
Go back to your faux news.
Facts are just facts. Sorry you can't handle the truth. Your loss.

Well like it or not national politics does play a role in the labs future so in some ways it is fair game and relevant. One of the points of any blog is place to rant. If you do not like post than stop reading. There is some wisdom for us in some these posts.

This is actually very insightful. Think about it, we have made our nuke labs privately run and with the bailout made our banks publicly run. Crazy stuff or neat trick. Think about how things are going, we are losing freedom, money, and security. At this rate in a few years the people in China may actually have more freedom than we do. Think about that and yes it has huge implications for the labs.
