|content=@AlexBerezow Iām sorry! Iām only aware of your book on the anti-scientific left (which is a huge problem as well), but not any work on the āanti-scientificā right. What do you write about Erich Bloch? Iām curious because I also covered him in my work. Canāt wait to discuss. | |||

|content=Thanks for asking Alex. āWelfare Queens in White Lab Coatsā is an oft repeated epithet since the Reagan-Bush era in anti-tax circles. Certainly Prof Rustum Roy said it. RRās '''NSF''' Director boosted it. But Iām referring to its amplification by free marketeers who ignore mkt failure. | |||

|content=As for boosts in Scientific funding, Iām not saying all US Republicans are anti-science funding. On the contrary. Many see it as an extension of security funding or competitiveness. But what drives many scientists away is an unwillingness to be careful about public goods & taxes. | |||

|content=@AlexBerezow Well, given that you hadnāt yet heard the expression before Iām thinking you may want to look at the history before retooling the implicit accusation that this was nothing. Erich Bloch wasnāt a nut. Nor was Roy. | |||

|content=@CathyYoung63 @Piaggio_g @AlexNowrasteh Fascinating. You do realize Iām quoting the actual secret study done by '''NSF'''/PRA/GUIRR? I mean, you are aware that this was already a scandal investigated by congress before I found the study and dissected it? | |||

Are you challenging anything substantive? I didnāt catch it if so. | |||
