Reducing profit-damaging regulations and letting food safety be guided by the Invisible Flagellum of salmonella just as nature intended

Toxicologist here! This will improve the health of zero Americans. Current synthetic food dyes are not causing health problems, and are often times used because they are actually safer than natural food dyes. Reminder that guns are the #1 cause of death of children but we are going to ban food dyes.

The thing about scientific research is that it’s one of the few national investments that’s a clear public good even if you entirely discount the actual ostensible point of it.

Fun fact: mortality rate for measles is 1-3 in 1,000. Yep. That's not a typo. Measles is no joke.

I teach a course on the mechanisms of cancer. The most impactful mutations weaken a checkpoint. Weak checkpoints = more errors. Be prepared for weakened food security, healthcare security, water quality etc. ALL OF THESE THINGS WILL IMPACT YOU. Prices will go up and safety will decrease.

Devastating for scientists and their research, and everyone who benefits from that research. I’m not sure if everyone outside academia is aware that a delay or “pause” in grant funding often means the researchers themselves are lost from the field, along with their expertise.

Teaching in science, I never thought of it as as political. Today I find myself walking into class and feeling that we cannot ignore the attack on science. The disregard for science the blocking of the CDC, the FDA etc will have a larger negative impact on the American people then the price of eggs.
