After that, some legendary President that also was a cowboy actor pulled Federal funds for research from the Universities in order to free up funds for a tax cut. Then, the Universities had to go "hats in hand" out to industry and Corporations to secure research funds. Today, China graduates more Scientists and Engineers and places more emphasis and money into their research than the US does. So, there is a modern-day history behind the "corruption" of which you speak! US students go For Business degrees more than Science and Engineering TODAY. Now you know, "the rest of the story"!

All about the money........
