Separating scientific discourse from the public

May 28, 2007

Greedy Trial Lawyer on the Avandia scandal:

I am sick and tired of all this gibberish about medicine clogging up the media. What this country needs is a separation of scientific discourse (including medicine) from the public. What possible good comes from public awareness and discussion of scientific matters? We should ban any scientific thought and discourse by anyone without a Dr. before his name.

You may have better captured my point of view had you inclued the rest of my paragraph:

“And, a similar ban should be applied to legal thought and communications. Ditto, in the areas of military matters and our government. Our lives would be so much better without all the corruption to medicine, science, law, military and government.”
