Conservatives have allowed the Food and Drug Administration to provide thousands of bureaucrats with a cushy living by slowing scientific progress as much as they possibly can, all in the name of the public good. Conservatives have allowed a million lawyers to make a cushy living by getting in the way of every productive activity, especially medical and scientific advances. France produces all of its electricity by atomic power. In America, anti-nuclear radicals openly used the law to make nuclear power too expensive to produce. Liberals are always talking about how backward the right is.
Modern science is absolutely and entirely the product of Western Civilization.
Every other so-called Great Civilization stopped at the slave and rowboat stage of technology. A true devotee of Western Civilization, a true conservative, is pro-science. Yes, science can get out of hand. Quite the opposite. Instead of worrying about the real problems the new technology presents, we provide new jobs for leftist bureaucrats.
