That's because the science is not influenced by just scientists but pseudo-science backed by industry selling stuff. Our science establishment sucks to a degree and it's mostly because of money. Money for grants comes from benefactors and often has strings attached. Scientists can't just do science they must constantly publish, and publish even if they don't have good findings. etc. etc. Science itself has become an industry beholden to economics. With all the problems that go along with that.
