So you are saying that had we stopped all the homosexuals in the eighties we would not have had the outbreak all over the country....that IS what you are saying....
BTW, I promise you, "the Right" as you call them, did not take it as a joke. If you care to look at the money that has been spent on aids compared to anyhing else, you can see.
<<<<<<<<<Politics Drives Funding of AIDS Research>>>>>>>>>>
By AFA Journal July 13, 2004
(AgapePress) - A recent article in the Washington Times noted that the amount of money Congress spends on medical research through both the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) may be allocated on the basis of politics, rather than science or public need.
In terms of numbers of people in the U.S. who die due to various diseases, figures from 2001 show heart disease (700,142), cancer (553,768), and stroke (163,538) topping the list. HIV/AIDS, which is ranked 22nd on the list of causes of death, killed 14,175 people in 2001.
However, when CDC funding in 2001 is examined, HIV/AIDS tops the list by far with $854.06 million. Funding for diseases like heart disease, cancer and stroke lag far behind.
