That's fine. I'll use the example of institutions that do research and teaching. These large groups that work in those types of hospitals function as a group, and the group supports the individual who is involved in teaching and research.
Money is short everywhere, but there's not a lot of money for research in this country, and research is vitally important. The reason I kept getting back to patient care and all the items I talked about, is that at the end of the day it funnels down to patient care. If you have good research, you're going to get a better result in the end, and everybody appreciates that.
Those individuals are financially supported by the groups. The provincial government in Ontario has established something called an AFP, an alternative funding plan, specifically to encourage groups to form so they can support teaching and research, which they recognize is underfunded.
