President Trump is doing little in the way of federal support/money for the kind of research that might lead the world in energy conservation or alternative energy sources.    Pres. Trump's intentions are to remove those dollars from the federal budget.  

Every private company in the world benefits from some level of service from their government.    Our own for instance, benefit from the largest and deadliest military in the world with the promise they will protect American interest world wide.   And that big thick book of tax law?  It isn't full of deductions intended from my wealth bracket.

Lets be clear, The President is rewarding his biggest money contributors.      It has little to do with how research is funded, or, if those funds are spent for good reason.    It's a political reward to cut research funds to alternative energy. (while we distort the market for petroleum through subsidies)
