Yes, virtually all basic research is federally funded. Does it distort science? It would be pretty extraordinary if it somehow didn't, wouldn't it?

- rortian 16y agoI'd just be interested in knowing what sort of bias would it have. How would the government like new science to look? Would it be at all productive to fake experiments? The government has its issues, but funding science is a great thing. Sure, I'd like for less money to be controlled by the pentagon. But I'd love to see even money spent on basic research.
