At what point do you believe scientific output became political? The politicization of education took off in the 70s but I think science held out for another ten to fifteen years due to it’s nature. Then, attrition and the increasing influence of politically educated “scientists” gave us the charlatans we have to deal with today.

I would say by the beginning of the 90s we were beginning to see scientific output based on political requirements…when was it GW started to take off?
