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.

Assuming I did my math correctly these two things would have been a combined total of .002% of the federal budget.

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.
