Perhaps that sense partially explains why, despite substantial increases in government spending on AIDS, the number of cases each year has been holding at about 40,000.
Wesley Clark has pledged to increase spending for AIDS research, prevention and health care to $30 billion a year by 2008.
Please check my math someone. I can't believe this number. Wesley Clark is proposing giving $750,000 for every infected AIDS individual in care and research funds per year. What??? What about breast cancer, heart disease, stroke, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's...? It appears that politically correct medical research has condemned the majority of sick Americans to near certain suffering and death. Thank you Democratic panderers.

We need to keep in mind that there are already several hundred thousand Americans with AIDS, so I think they'd need to be included with the new 40,000 each year. Anyway you cut it, it's a disproportionate share of health dollars,

According to the Miami Herald: "Asked how he would pay for his ambitious AIDS plan, Clark pointed to a bunch of red, white and blue balloons. ''I can bring this country together,'' he said. ``I believe we can come together on this because I believe in this country. I love those colors, I love the flag.""
Oh, that's how he's going to do it.
