I believe Americans are 14 and 17th globally when it comes to math and science. That is not a superpower.

Yea but we’re #1 in the world in guns per capita at 112 per 100 residents, as well as #1 in the world in prison population. So that’s superpower stuff.

Science has become an underrated aspect of humanity. We used to plant by it, we used to navigate by it.

Ironically we've become lost in the virtues of current technology. I argue we've lost our way, we used to look up

We are at a point in America, after decades of 'dumbing down', where those not capable of complex critical thinking (a minor majority) find it easier to mock and distrust science than to become educated enough to understand it. It's these people that would rule by the mob given half the chance and would throw us back into a modern dark ages.

Knowledge is and always has been power. Science properly used translates to better lives for all. Allowing the troglodytes to derail these truths out of laziness and lack of education will probably be the downfall of America.

At the rate the right is going in this direction currently, it's only a matter of time before we have to consult with the oracle and have a casting of chicken bones done to pray on before we can make decisions like planting in the spring!

After a decade of stuffing the ballot box of science with like thinkers and tossing aside those who disagree with the Left side of science.

After a decade of fixing the numbers to say what the Left wants them to say.

It is time for the return of Science.

It is time for an MBA to figure out what needs to be cut, fixed or increased and which departments should be closed down altogether.
