Like everything it isn't black and white. But the US government subsidizes a lot of research and the people should have a right to access it for free - it's not like the review process is what costs the most. It is a complex economy but what isn't these days? The government would benefit from certain types of research being validated so I'm not really in favor of government run journals.

I'm a fan of government funded research but it should at least be a reasonable price for citizens to access. Most journals cost thousands of dollars per year for a subscription to read articles that the people subsidized most of the research for.

Ill admit that I don't know how to effectively fix it all for everyone's liking but something should be changed.


My point was mainly that making journals free to access for government-funded research is impossible because there is still cost for the journals themselves to review the Articles and publish the journal.

I would love nothing more than having free research articles. Not having to wait for Library loans would significantly speed up my own research.

Government lowering taxes for almost everyone is the 'reverse' of armed assailants taking tax money from the government and giving it back to the people, i suppose.

I'm pretty sure middle class taxes will go up. I know I'm gonna end up paying more and there will be literally nothing to show for it. Some 1% parasites gonna benefit.

Why don't you like paying more? Isn't it an honor and a privilege to give the government money that you earned? Aren't higher taxes good in your view?
Just think of all the wasteful shit they will spend it on to boost the economy. Plenty of broken windows that need fixing.
Its not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country comrade.

"So we're going to collect less money overall, less from people who have 1000x as much as you, and we're reducing all those social programs you support. But YOU get to pay more, isn't that nice?"

Yes that's it, people 1000 times richer will make more % and so on, indirectly, will lower the value of your earnings.
