This is a problem with how all government programs are discussed and understood.

Government programs are not “special services“. They should not be called “discretionary funding“

Government programs are things the American people want because it makes our lives better

Ok so yeah, this has quickly become the #1 misunderstanding about the canceled grants

the grants are not “subsidies” or “entitlements” to Harvard or Princeton or whatever

they aren’t going into universities’ endowments

they are competitive contracts won by these universities to do research
