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

In recent times, more and more scientific
research
is being carried out every day by both; governments and private

. In my opinion, governments should carry out and have total control over those
research
because private companies' intentions are normally to make profits and to gain power and domination over the population.
Firstly
, when a private company undertakes
research
is because it wants to make a profit.
For instance
, it is widely known that many private pharmaceutical companies do
research
about new drugs in order to sell them to the population. For that reason, I believe it should be a trusted body,
such
as governments, to do
research
and control it when a new drug is created and sold to the people.
Secondly
, powerful private companies carry out scientific
research
to have domination over the population. They would like to know how a certain community reacts to certain findings,
thus
how to have better control over
this
particular community.
For example
, in the USA, in 1995, there was exploration carried out by a group of scientists, which monitored people's behaviour.
This
kind of inquiry should be totally approved by law because they have been chosen by people. In conclusion, I believe that scientific investigation should be done by the state, and controlled by them because they are more trustable for the community compared to the private associations, whose intentions are for-profit and powerful.

Word Count

IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 250 words in writing task 2. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.

A very long essay will not give you a higher band score.

Aim for between 260 to 290 words in writing task 2. This will ensure a concise essay and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 40 minutes to write the essay and you need around 10 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long essay in 30 minutes.
