Some say science isn’t political... {{{snort}}}

Well, I should say, “real” science shouldn’t be.

But this ain’t real science.

It seems I'll need a LARGER grant than first estimated.

There is a line that Ayn Rand wrote in Atlas Shrugged that nailed it down. I can’t remember who said it or to whom in the book but I cannot forget the basic point which was this, “FREE scientific inquiry” is a redundancy and “GOVERNMENTAL scientific inquiry” is an oxymoron. I might state it as TRUTH IS NOT BOUGHT WITH TAX MONEY.
