Tax and Spend

A Hoover Institute scientist criticizes the declining quality of government funded science.

"Miller is particularly blunt with the EPA, and states: “The overwhelming majority of it [science he reviewed] was shoddy, irrelevant, and unpublishable.” This is not particularly surprising, because the EPA has subordinated science for legal activity and public relations. Miller states that much of the $800 Million EPA research budget goes to public relations and to favored nonprofit groups that support EPA activities."

The evidence keeps mounting.
