I looked through that, but it's all over the map. The overall budgets are clearly higher, but not everyone is getting a fair allocation in all likelihood. Also, something in there to keep in mind that's brought up in passing in the article-

Quote:
...the Trump campaign pointed to consistent funding for certain budget sub-categories, such as CDC’s public health emergency preparedness, which helps states and localities deal with public health emergencies, including outbreaks. That program suffered funding losses that predate Trump.
It would be good to have data going further back than 2016 to see how far back some of this actually goes, but the information of how much Congress actually allocated is publicly available.

Not really though. Because it has all of the losses in red at the very end and there is a whole lot of red.

I don't want to do the math on it but if you want to. Doesn't seem to add up though. Those gains have to be pretty chunky because the negative outweighs them by far.

Edit: 17 departments got less funding and 6 departments got more funding.

Art Is Dead. Buy My ****.

People I know who are still working are saying coworkers are coming in coughing up lungs.


That bus driver might be alive if the surgeon general said make homemade masked instead of STOP BUYING MASKS and lying about them being ineffective. If I have to go shopping I’m wearing homemade masks I made.

My friend told me her coworkers are having a ****ing bbq this weekend. Get Marshall. We need his brand of Wild West Justice. (Why did that auto-cap?)

Trolley dillema: Is killing five people who refuse to follow the guidelines worth preventing 500,000 new infections? Yes.

That’s one way to cull the homeless population.

But if he’s talking about rich people who feel entitled to just wander about infecting **** then right on.

Making the stockers social distance now, not letting more than one person in the backroom during stock days. Apparently the grindcore fest in garner was ground zero for the raleigh outbreak but that could have been jokes.

I'll check that dictionary, but in the meantime I'm impressed - as is everyone else in the world - by your eloquence, obvious accomplishments and success, and the evidence of your blazingly high intelligence.
