With science 100% free.
With other shit in the business and political world. It's fair play to charge.
Discussion
Devi's advocate: Why should scientific knowledge be free if somebody spent time, energy and effort to obtain that knowledge? What makes it different from everything else?
The evolution of the human condition depends on it. Otherwise we might be on this insignificant pale blue dot forever.
Doing great science is not Free. It costs a lot to do research in science, are you kidding me?
Lemme see how much money did NIH give in Science grants to do research this past year?
Wasn't it somewhere in the range of 45 Billion Dollars?
If there is one thing that science should fix its that damn paywall the publishers put between the Research Publications and the Public.
Decentralize the Science Research publishers and make a science paywall payable in Sats. Now that's an idea.
