This is a case in which entrenched ideology is self-destructive. Academics always think that voting democrat will help with science funding etc., but in the end, it usually results in budget shortfalls and big cuts in funding. Further, when you hit the private sector with taxes and big regulatory costs, they won’t fund research either. In the end the pipeline of innovation that can drive future economic growth dries up. Science funding is horrible in the US right now. i would not encourage a young person to pursue science at this time.

Meanwhile on Free Republic, myth trumps science every day
