re: #324 Obdicut

How are you coming to that conclusion? What department does ‘general reduction’ lower the budget of, please?

Here we are again. Lest i again be accused of misquoting you while quoting you, let’s choose an option.

Either:

1. The General Reduction is too large to allow us to comment yet on individual department cuts, and we should therefore withhold comment until we see how the General Reduction shakes out, largely invalidating this thread, or;

2. We trust the discretion of the CDC, by and large, to target the General Reduction towards those programs which would suffer the least and believe that they will not reduce the Infectious Diseases budget further (of which the Immunizations and Respiratory Diseases is a department) because this cut is already too big, thus validating the existence of this thread.

I’d been going with 2, because i think this is a valid thread.

Also, if there’s a third option that i missed, please let me know.
