There’s a difference between the hear, and the now.

But seriously, far too much of this publicly funded research is locked away behind high pay walls for no legitimate reasons.

publicly funded research is locked away behind high pay walls

Even though <1% of people would read it, the fact that it’s all there and not hidden would do a lot to dispel the hideous intersection between conspiracy theorists and anti-science sentiment that is now poisoning civic society.

  JFC what would it cost to pay researchers to review papers and have costs only be to cover those who want physical copies. Compare that number to the $75Billion for ICE specifically, between now and 2029
  
  $7.5 Million would probably cover it for the same period
  
  Think what the USA could have been
