The treacherous world of modern scientific practice and its industrial use


Here is a piece from an essay that relates the experience of a scientist within the industrial scientific complex.  Science has evolved to a tool that is isolated from society to have value only to large scale private industrial institutions.  Its funding comes from public taxation and "humanitarian" organizations, but its product is funneled to private industry.  This is an example of how those from above load the burden of their cost to further develop their machines of exploitation, on those from below who are ultimately the objects of exploitation.
