The Cost of Cutting Funding to US Scientific Research

According to a good government group, cuts to federal science agencies do not result in financial savings. Instead, these reductions lower economic growth and shift financial burdens onto families and communities. Such funding decreases make Americans less healthy and less secure. While NAPSI notes a mix of good, bad, and better news regarding the federal government and scientific research, the overall impact of these cuts is presented as detrimental to national well-being and stability.
