Scientific research should be carried out and controlled by the governments rather than private companies. Do you agree or disagree?

These days, many people argue that governments should provide funds to conduct and control scientific

research

instead

of leaving in the hands of private corporations. In my opinion, I completely agree with

this

point of view. It is undeniable that there are two significant dangers of private conduct of

research

.

Firstly

, some private companies could be tempted to manipulate the results in order to maximize their profits. For those corporations, their priority is the profits and the reputation, and

thus

they do not pay much attention in the accurate results of the

research

.

Secondly

, from

research

is likely to cause profound social consequences.

For example

, the genetic modified crops, without unproven effects, might result in the whole ecosystem destruction due to meddling with nature.

Although

national authorities have responsibilities to allocate resources to social welfare, I would believe that they

also

need to finance in conducting scientific

research

. Governments should provide funding for

In addition

, government- decision making is the best way to prioritize expenditure on specific areas of

research
