The economic consequences of restricting scientific inquiry on this scale could be far-reaching.

The article by John Drake on Forbes, dated May 9, 2025, discusses the dismantling of the National Science Foundation (NSF) and its potential negative impacts on the U.S. economy. The NSF, a key federal agency funding scientific research, is facing budget cuts and restructuring, which the author argues could stifle innovation and economic growth. Drake emphasizes that instead of dismantling the NSF, the economy needs more investment in scientific research to maintain competitiveness, foster technological advancements, and support job creation. He highlights the importance of sustained funding for basic and applied research, warning that the current trajectory could lead to a decline in America's scientific leadership and economic prosperity.
