'They want Trump to be able to stand up and say he made a deal with so-and-so – an Ivy League school, some sort of name-brand school that gives them cover so they can say, "We don’t want to destroy higher education."

Even using the lower value in calculations, the lost health from the NIH cuts translates into more than $8.2 trillion ($100 000 × 82 million years). These losses would be weighed against the gains that emerge from reduced public spending. Over 25 years, the proposed annual savings of $20 billion amounts to $500 billion in budgetary reductions. This pales in comparison to the $8.2 trillion in lost health, which is 16 times greater than the proposed cost savings."<a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/DefendResearch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DefendResearch</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Funding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Funding</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Medicine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Medicine</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Trump</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/TrumpVResearch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#TrumpVResearch</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/USPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#USPol</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/USPolitics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#USPolitics</a>
