Wild Birds Unlimited sells something called a squirrel baffle that goes on the birdfeeder's pole. I've had one on my feeders for years and get a kick out of watching the squirrels try and fail to reach the feeders.

That's not to mention the loss of scientific expertise, both in government and at universities. All the innovators will go elsewhere. Faculty and recruitment at universities and colleges will suffer, cascading throughout our culture and economy.
