worst jobs in science

an article
on the worst jobs in science listed nursing, science teacher, and tech
help, no suprise, but the part i found interesting was the
congressional science advisor, for this paragraph here:



Placed as official advisers to our congressional representatives, these
fellows’ disillusionment is swift and merciless. “It’s an exercise in
futility to get science across in Congress,” says Raphael Sagarin, a
marine ecologist who just finished his year in D.C. “The side with more
power wins, not the side with the best data or the most cogent
argument.”
