It reminds Turkey when Erdogan was licencing and jailing the so called #Gülen supporters, anyone who was not a firm #AKP supporter
Gutting funding and firing scientists is not easy to undo. It can take years to assemble and train effective, capable, efficient teams. Dispersing these teams is an irreversible process.
This is a major blow driven by conspiracy theories, a disdain for skilled expertise, and deep ignorance.
They are also cutting “unnecessary” overhead costs . You know like electric, ventilation, lab equipment, building maintenance. So now they can just do their little lab experiments out in the streets in a shed. I mean how hard can it be?
I guess soccer moms on Facebook doing their own research are better than all these Ph.Ds. We can outlaw things with “chemicals” somebody who barely passes high school chemistry finds scary, at the same time ignoring bird flu, TB, and climate change.
Under the guise of ridding gov. of waste. They need to placate billionaires who were promised tax cuts in 2017 so they’re cutting programs and departments. Endangering the finances, health, and equal rights of women, people of color, and anyone who make less than $300,000. Follow the money.
