Merger of US earth sciences agencies

Very bad idea.

Very, very bad.


Merger of US earth sciences agencies proposed



This is bad on so many levels.

First, set this specific issue aside and let me ponder the wonders of a right-wing theological take-down of the US government. What if the religious right staged a coup and took control of congress and the executive and judicial branches. Why would that be a concern for anyone? But a joint world science body would not be a threat? Clearly, to those people fearful of the religious, they would not be at all concerned about science becoming one world body, for science is rational and scientific.

What about in the 1970s when the world science ALL pointed to an ice age coming. Every major science agency and respectable sort believed in the coming ice age (including James Hansen - employee of George Soros). Now imagine if we had had the world body in 1978 - the science of a coming ice age would have been foisted upon us only to learn thirty years later that it wasn't ice we should worry about, just the opposite -melting ice.

Then imagine all the other areas that these world bodies would dictate to the governments of the world - how much we should produce, who should produce, the areas that should be used for growing, areas used for living - science will, without bias, change our environment for us.

Won't that be nice.

We would need a regulatory agency to oversee the world body of science ... and that regulatory agency would be comprised of whom? And what would you call it? All the benefits mentioned in the AP article are negated, in my opinion, by the international control over sovereign states - the goal all along of some.

Bad idea. Bad bad idea.

The US can sort out whatever issues face us, working in cooperation with other agencies - which we do already. We do not need to combine them into a world federation science agency to solve issues we cannot solve on our own.



Bad idea.
