A majority of self-described conservatives now view America’s colleges as a DRAIN on society

“Global warming” star professor Michael Mann fails to obey Canadian Court order that he produce his data

Foremost among the “stars” of the government’s manmade-global-warming movement is Michael Mann, a professor at Penn State. Mann and his research agenda have received millions of dollars in federal government research grant money. Mann’s (always secret from the public) global-warming data and calculations have provided the backbone for the UN’s claims that increasing CO2 levels …

Professor Roy Spencer predicted last year that pro-government “scientists” would soon start “adjusting” satellite temp data to bring it into compliance with global warming theory. It has now happened

Professor Roy Spencer of the University of Alabama–Huntsville (UAH) is true pioneer of satellite temp data collection. He and Dr. John Christy have spent years launching and monitoring satellite temperature data (using government science grants). The problem for government-trusting global-warming believers is that the UAH satellite data show very little global warming over the past …

America’s colleges increasingly produce mental health patients

America’s government-funded and supported colleges produce a steady stream of government-worshipping content and culture. The expression of alternative and free-market views is generally shunned, and the colleges practice wide-scale discrimination in favor of the trusters of expansive government.

As much as half of all published “science” is untrue

The prestigious British medical journal Lancet is out with a statement indicating that as much as half of all published “science” is untrue. See here. Reasons vary. But most of the blame falls on the role of government, and the religion of government supremacy, which dominates universities worldwide.

GOVERNMENT UNIVERSITIES NOW THREATEN TO PUNISH FACULTY WHO TELL STUDENTS TO CONSIDER ALTERNATIVE VIEWPOINTS

There is no valid reason for taxpayers to own universities. Every argument that is commonly given for government colleges is provably false. Modern government universities (1) are less free than their surrounding environments, (2) are more expensive than most alternatives, and (3) promote a steady one-sided stream of elitism, central planning, and government control over …

The majority of government-funded scientific research cannot be replicated

In May of 2016, a survey by Nature revealed that over two thirds of researchers surveyed had tried and failed to reproduce the results of another scientist’s study. In the field of cancer biology, merely 10% of results from published literature were found to be reproducible. Government funding of university “science” produces published “studies” which …

Western snowpack is now so deep that scientists’ devices can’t measure it

Government “scientists” have been warning for the past 20 years that glaciers are melting and snow is disappearing nationwide due to manmade, CO2-driven global warming. Humans must become socialist, and give governments even more power or we are all doomed, say the official government scientists of the western world. But here is an interesting story …
