Ninety Five percent of all “studys” are nothing more than a request to the government for more grant money.

There is a private sector, sort of, left. Mostly this is big pharma or big money invested in small pharma. There is little money in honest attempts at research and accordingly very little of it; and a lot of interest in trying to refute it, shut it down or censor it.
Or attempts to justify more government power grabs with scare tactics.
have a friend with a phd in meteorology. he said he could get all the funding he wanted as long as the work was tied in to climate change.
