Science underdeveloped as the Gub ups 3rd World coruption

And very proud they are of it too. But theres been moaning that it's been hard to get young people into science in Ireland.

“Nobel prize laureate Jim Watson gave a talk recently and observed that scientists in general worldwide are underpaid. The cost of living in Ireland is quite high and I know of scientists who’ve looked at Ireland and seen the cost of houses and decided that while everything else is in place, they couldn’t afford to live here.”

I don't know that we need top scientists just a start might be people saying lets promote Irish scientists but then we Irish are still stuck trying to debate whether its vapours or bacteria that causes malaria. If instead of giving money to corrupt third worlders why not invest that in Irish science? Or eliminate poverty?
