This smells of BS on a major scale

Scientist of WHAT, exactly? What are they studying that we, the taxpayers, absolutely must have? Where are they planning on going to, and who has the money to fund them?

COLOR ME SKEPTICAL: Three-fourths of polled American scientists say they are considering leaving U.S.

March 28 (UPI) — Trump administration scientific research budget cuts appear to have prompted three-fourths of polled scientists to say they’re considering leaving the United States for Europe or Canada.

The poll, published in the scientific journal Nature, revealed 75.3% of the responding scientists are considering leaving, while 24.7% are not.

Scientists, especially those who are younger and early into their careers, were more likely than older scientists to consider leaving the United States.

The poll showed of 690 postgraduate researchers responding, 548 were considering leaving the U.S. Of the 340 doctoralstudents, 255 of them said they were also considering leaving the country for more science-friendly nations.
