Might not replace it all and probably doesn’t have to since a lot of it is BS anyways.If you think the private market would replace the 35-45 percent of funding that would go away in your world then you have no grasp of how most people like to spend their money.
You’d definitely get some of it replaced.
and I’m not saying we have to eliminate all public funding but we have to do something about the fraud waste and abuse EVERYWHERE in government
