By now, you've probably heard of Donald Trump's elaborate budget proposal, aptly named "America First: A Budget Blueprint to Make America Great Again [1]." The plan slashes spending for various government agencies and programs (including Meals on Wheels [2]) while boosting funds for defense, Homeland Security, and Veterans Affairs. The manifesto has received quite a bit of backlash for its extreme cuts, but one (famous) man's response stands out among the rest.

Renowned astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson took to social media to rip apart Trump's proposal in a series of tweets. He explained how cuts to science, health, and the arts would make America "weak," "sick," and "stupid." Read on to see his rallying cry against the plan and what he thinks is actually necessary to make American great again.

We can all imagine a land that provides no support for Art. But is that a place you'd want to Live? To Visit? To Play?
