My late business partner, physicist and chemist, brilliant beyond belief, left the electronics industry because 'I felt there was no chance to do science.' We had something we both developed but got no funding for it. Lots of scientists work for government or rely on military budgets: does this mean they don't have views of their own? Certainly not!
