Thank you for detailing your lie and admitting you did know you were lying when you said the CDC budget was cut.
Question, what was the rate of increase of the CDC budget since Trump took office? Do you even know? Your revamped argument is based on that
FY 2017 CDC budget: $11.9 billion
FY 2021 CDC budget: $12.7 billion
Annualized rate of funding increase: 1.6%
Annualized rate of population increases: 0.6%
Annualized inflation: 1.7%
1.006*1.017=2.3% annual increase to keep up with inflation and population increase.
CDC budget if it had remained constant in real dollar terms per population: $13.0 billion.
That’s $300 million or2.4% less than the CDC would have if their budget had remained constant.
