This is fascinating. Erich Bloch and Peter House employed economists to specifically and intentionally design our scientific immigration system to drive down U.S. scientific compensation using foreigners and “lures”. Yes, the @nsf and @theNASciences in 1986 secretly designed our U.S. stem system so that our STEM employers could save money if we drove away our own top STEM talent.
Scientific backstabbing. Plain and simple. We took the world’s top scientific workforce and destroyed it to save money on science salaries and to get access to more pliant employees. Why? Because our leaders appointed idiots to save a few bucks. I’m sorry but that is what happened.
So, who is this Collins guy and what is he doing at the top of the U.S. science pile? Why are we listening to him? Is he some great thinker? Is he some kind of policy genius? Is he more ethical and merit loving than the rest of us slobs and mere mortals?
Ah. Yes. I remember now. Francis Collins! The one who calls for “devastating” take downs against his “fringe” MD/PhD professorial colleagues and their work. And yet, here he is again! Why won’t he slink off somewhere where he can’t do even more damage? Why is he here??
This is what DC science policy circles look like. Two faced. Francis Collins would end your career without a second thought for principaled scientific dissent. As he tried to do to my colleague @DrJBhattacharya at Stanford.
He should not be speaking for science. He does not represent science.
Science cannot afford Francis Collins and his culture of backstabbing officials.
@LivingwithLuci@Rainmaker1973 You misinterpret. Different perspectives provide different truths that are both correct but different. Quantum physics is the core proof of that.
Since odd numbers are harder for our brains to process, some people actually experience feelings of discomfort when the volume of the television, among other things, is set to an odd number.
Ryland Garrett (@Ryland_Garrett) is one of the top goal-scorers in Nebraska for Kearney (@KHS_BoysSoccer) this year ⚽️
He scored his 2nd hat trick of the season Saturday 🎩
He might not be @Cristiano, but he's this week's 5⭐️ Performer @ryanhogue24
