President Bush speaks on the state of the economy to employees at Hallmark Cards, Inc., Friday, Feb. 1, 2008, in Kansas City, Mo. Bush wants to cut funding for teaching hospitals and freeze medical research in a $3 trillion budget for 2009 that is still likely to generate a record deficit once war costs are tallied up. The Bush budget to be submitted Monday would cut the budget for the Health and Human Services Department by $2 billion, or 3 percent. By contrast, the Pentagon would get a $35 billion increase to $515 billion for core programs, with war costs additional. (AP Photo/Pablo Martinez Monsivais)
The news only gets worse from here. If the federal budget is cutting funding to teaching hospitals that means less people will receive health care and the health care that is rendered will be diminished in it's capacity to deliver quality care and so much for 'cutting edge medical break throughs,' they just won't exist !
