Federal R&D funding: the bedrock of national innovation
Federal research and development (R&D) funding has significantly
declined as a share of GDP for several decades.

Yes, your point is 100% accurate. (But so is mine.)

Sadly, the USG has apparently decided to give away any form of
leadership in science, innovation, technology.  Really shortsighted,
really stupid.  Exactly what you'd expect from this cast of clowns.

I look forward to the next two decades of scientific advances to come
from countries other than America.  But by then we'll be manufacturing
again, so maybe China can invent the new iphone and Americans in
Kentucky can build them in their factories.
