Political interference in science in the USA

by jardinier . Updated 19 years, 6 months ago

It has been suggested at this website that research scientists have an “agenda” in that they depend on Government grants to stay in business.

I don’t have to mention names, but we all know of someone who scoffs at scientific studies on global warming for the above mentioned reason.

I now present you with a formidable array of instances of government interference with, including suppression or distortion of, scientific work.
