Abstract
The author discusses the history of science in the U.S., focusing on the factors that he claims led to politicians being anti-science in the 2012 elections. The economic aspects of scientific innovations, economic growth in the U.S. since World War II, and anti--intellectualism are discussed, as well as a questionnaire for political candidates prepared in 2012 on science topics. Topics such as global warming, evolution, and government policies on human reproduction are discussed, and the differences between Democratic candidates such as U.S. President Barack Obama and Mitt Romney are described. Politicians such as John A. Boehner, Michelle Bachmann, and Jon Huntsman are also mentioned. INSET: IN BRIEF.
