Science 2.0
Founded in 2006, Science 2.0 was established to enhance the way science is communicated, published, collaborated on, and engaged with by the public. Our mission is to achieve the following goals: We aim to provide a platform where top scientists can share articles and discuss important topics freely, without the constraints of size or editorial biases. There are no political or cultural influences here, allowing readers to access high-quality science directly from the source and discover new knowledge. We strive to build a collaborative environment equipped with tailored tools that foster genuine teamwork among scientists. Additionally, we advocate for an open publishing model. The traditional subscription-based model is no longer sustainable, especially since taxpayers fund academic research. Therefore, they should have the right to access this information without any fees. While open access, which shifts the cost to scientists, is a step forward, Science 2.0 promotes a truly open publishing approach—where readers can read for free, and scientists can publish without any costs.

In the 1980s, there was a conflict raging about recycling. Governments were starting to do it while states that had a 'bottle bill' - a deposit on bottles you got refunded upon return - wanted to keep their success. Some environmental groups, like Public Interest Research Group, supported state bottle bills over expensive government recycling - that's right, an environmental group that didn't want more centralized control. They believed the private sector would continue to do it better and cheaper.

Over 40 years ago, President Ronald Reagan, the most pro-science president of the 20th century, proposed a lot of bold initiatives. A Superconducting Super Collider was one goal, a big boost for government funding of basic research was another, and he also laid out a Strategic Defense Initiative. A missile defense system. That last one was dismissed by Democrats in Congress and media corporations as "Star Wars" fantasy.

Disinformation and misinformation are common tactics and in the 2008 they entered the social media realm. Senator Barack Obama came from behind to overtake Senator Hillary Clinton to secure the Democratic nomination and then used the 100% greater funding he got by reneging on his promise to limit himself to public financing, as his opponent Senator John McCain did, to pour money into social media and an easy victory.

As the developed world becomes more removed from science and health, it is easier to embrace beliefs that science and medicine are not needed at all, with some claiming that vaccines and pesticides are not really needed, the natural world can do it without modern tools. Companies will cater to that also. If enough people mobilized by politicians and activists insist they don't want some harmless food coloring or BPA, companies will remove those and simply charge more.

If you think you are in a totalitarian regime because the US President federalized National Guard troops, you may need to get a little more intellectual diversity. An experiment instead showed that those on the right are more likely to look into the facts and learn that federalizing the National Guard first happened in 1794. By order of President George Washington. Then it happened again in 1799, by order of President John Adams.
