as for the researchers trying to stay in the good graces of the political machine, we don't need them. we survived for millennia without them. they can adapt. this reminds me of the french physics establishment that for decades rejected quantum mechanics because it did not come from france. they'll be ok. don't worry about the stupidities of researchers.
It's definitely true that public research is underfunded. It would also need better leadership for more funding to matter.
Who cares about people that trust research because it has "public" or "private" label?
