Well, on the other side of the political spectrum you also have arbitrary boundaries on which issues are pro-science (vaccinations) and which aren't (nuclear power).
- LatteLazy 5y agoNo one is totally self consistent, but it seems weird to me: the dems can't quite manage it on nuclear power which is about 1% of their platform. The Reps can manage it on abortion, guns or the budget, which is aboht 95% of their platform...
- triceratops 5y agoIs being anti-nuclear necessarily "anti-science"? How much have Chernobyl and Fukushima cost to clean up? Are there a lot of private insurers lining up to underwrite new plants? Even if nuclear is perfectly safe (which it largely is), and waste disposal is a perfectly solved problem (which it's not), economically there's a big question mark over it. I don't understand why conservatives are so hot about something so fiscally reckless.
