"Bush’s first budget proposed cutting grants to children’s hospitals like the one he visited by 15% ($34 million). His 2004 budget additionally proposes to cut 30% ($86 million) out of grants to children’s hospitals."
I'm curious, is a reduction in an increase a cut? Rick? I am VERY interested in your views on this one, so please respond. Let me give you an example. If you're making 50,000 a year, and last year, and the year before and the year before you received a 10% raise, and this year, since times are harder, you only received a 5% raise, did you take a pay cut?
