george bush and the corporate government raiders only believe in science
if they can use it to make weapons to kill or control people, the rest of the
science is bunk to them

That's ridiculous - the most important science makes a PROFIT (e.g. drugs)


If the purpose of science is to make a profit, then there's an inherent
prejudice in their work, and therefore illegitimate.

Real science is of discovery and without prejudice.

Err....I believe you will find that all scientists use the profession
to survive in the world, shelter and feed their families. Often by
professing at an educational institution. Which scientist do you have
in mind?
