You live in a country where value is defined by money instead of any intrinsic measure of value.

Do landlords provide any service of value? Sure, they provide shelter. Does that explain 50% YoY rent increases? Not really...

Similarly, did Kennedy provide a service of value? Not really... But we have assigned a certain value to his actions based on the economic system we exist in.

Okay I have no idea what your point is here. And it seems like you missed my point too which was that "people who bring in money help fund research, but their contribution of funding shouldn't diminish the work that the actual scientists do with that money".

Nvm, I just read the other comments you've posted and it really just feels like you're trolling and trying to evoke a response out of people. So I'm gonna ignore anything further from you.
