Agreed, it happens all the time. Here though, we have the person expected to help our country understand and use the sciences to benefit the population,prevented on a grand level from doing so by the very people we trust to help him. For the first time I have ever seen, we have the nations top scientist (for all intent and purpose), forced to rewrite the science by the leaders of the country.
I find it completely unacceptable. I have stood by watching the corruption of so many aspects of our nation....but do not fuck with my science.
