Under Bush, that R&D has dried up. Hmm.. the National Science Foundation budget was increased 50% (4 -> 5.9 Billion) between 2001 and 2006 and requested $6.4 Billion in 2008's budget: en.wikipedia.org Maybe the funding cutbacks you allege lie in some other area of the government budget: en.wikipedia.org Maybe we should do a better job of first making sure that the R&D we already fund it publicly accessible: taxpayeraccess.org I honestly don't know if overall Federal funding for R&D has decreased or increased, but it obviously has dramatically increased in some areas.
