Stop slashing science funding, says Intel Chairman Craig Bar
Stop slashing science funding, says Intel Chairman Craig Barrett.
He's a pretty old school guy, I'll give him that, but it's not just a funding issue, it's also a corporate convenience issue. We're just plain getting beat and government funding won't cure that - but a corporate halt to outsourcing will.
I am not saying outsourcing is all bad - smart people everywhere deserve to compete and it prevents laziness - but if he's going to take a stand, he should have Intel put its money where his mouth is.
I also here and now restate my belief that rather than throwing more money at the problem of making more American into scientists, we should make more scientists into Americans.
