This questions sounds a bit controversial, but I will ask it anyway.

The USA, India, Canada, Israel, Sweden, Norway, Spain, Netherlands, Australia, France, Singapore, South Korea, Germany, Switzerland, Japan are spending billions of dollars every year on science.

Some companiesc say their created scientific research centers like Google DeepMind or Microsoft Research. Some billionaires such as Bill Gates or Michael Bloomberg are funding scientific research.

Is there any actual evidence that Science lacks money?

That more money would actually help scientists do more interesting stuff?

In PC video games, a gorgeous game called Crysis came out. Everyone was stunned. Since Crysis, video game studios have spent a tremendous amount of money to try to make games more beautiful, but it hasn’t really paid off.

Almost no one notices these small improvements anymore. In fact, many gamers actually question whether studios focus too much on graphics at the expense of gameplay and fun.

Don’t get me wrong. I love Science. I’m happy we are funding Science.

But I’m just wondering whether money is the real bottleneck neck that Science faces.

Right now, do scientists actually have money problems making it difficult to conduct ambitious research?

Would more money actually help them discover new things ?
