Scientists go out of their way to NOT be affected by Politics. They are the most apolitical part of our society. As far as "governments seeking new taxes" goes it is hard for me to conceptualize ANY government NOT seeking new taxes. Should we still be taxing horse and buggies and NOT taxing automobiles because they are newer? Should we NEVER tax A.I. or Tik Tok because they are NEW?????
......I don't understand?
