Yes, I agree that bigger forces of prejudice and power are at play in funding our medical and especially public health institutions. Add to this mess our federal STEM and biomedical research monies being DOGE'd away too. Frankly, I think the AMA is part of the cabal ... and I'm an M.D. trained in this country and practicing x 30yrs.
I see a degradation, across every spectrum, of public health as a priority with the elimination of grants, studies, personnel, and help to countries where outbreaks can be contained before they spread. Health and Human Services needs to be renamed. It is no longer healthy nor human.
The spite and racial animosity that underlays everything touched by the Trump administration impoverishes everyone, including its true believers, many of whom are as socially and economically disadvantaged as the people they hate. Their desire to hurt people who don’t look like themselves reminds me of a story about a man who met an angel, who promised to give him anything he desired. “But” the angel said, “whatever I give you, I’ll give your neighbor twice as much of the same thing.” “Then put out my eye” was his response.
