Re: Threats to American science's dominance
I'm not positive about this, but my impression is that there is no return to basic research. It's in applied research where products (and potential revenue streams) are created. But even so, I'd argue that the basic research benefits the country as a whole, and therefore is worth funding. I'd say it...

Threats to American science's dominance
America has been a dominant economic power for decades, and I think there are solid arguments for science and basic research being critical to that. Basic research happens mostly at universities, and then is translated to applied research - both at universities and in private firms. This is true in ...
Re: Tariffs?
No other country "tariffs us". The tariffs imposed by China or Canada or Japan or Great Britain are taxes on their citizens and business who import American products.

Re: 5/27 Nationals vs. Mariners GT
Unbelievable. And it isn't just one guy crunching numbers, is it? I mean, how many people are working in analytics for the Mariners?
I wonder if DOGE is available to have a little look at this.

Re: Tariffs?
You are complaining about the wrong thing. I am very perplexed that you don't consider yourself a lefty. All you do is complain about President Trump, but when Biden was in office, you defended him. Why not do a post about something that you think is going well in the country..... and back up your ...

Re: And we're supposed to believe...
As for President Trumps tweet.... It wasn't his only tweet for the day. He had another honoring thee troops, but hey, it's nice your hatred is so through that you can't differ between the different movement he makes. You're still a joke. Thank you President Trump for the tweet honoring our troops.

Re: And we're supposed to believe...
Trump to West Point Grads: “He ended up getting a divorce, found a new wife. Could you say a trophy wife? I guess we can say a trophy wife,” Trump said. “It didn’t work out too well,” he went on. “But that doesn’t work out too well, I must tell you, a lot of trophy wives, it doesn’t it work. But it...
Re: Tariffs?
IF you are wanting to talk about lies, we can go a good 550,000 pages on lies from Barry and Biden alone. Shit, if we throw Schrillery in there, we can go over a million. Gil, stop being a dog with a bone. If a country wants to trade with us enough, they can pay the tariff's. China isn't paying the...
