Undoubtedly, science fields play a significant role in people’s daily lives in many of the places where they work or play. Some people think that government should aid scientific research even if it does not have any practical purpose, while others do not. Both sides may have their own reasons to support their views. In my opinion, however, I support that the government should provide researchers with a lot of supports even though it does not have any practical goals for the following reasons.
First of all, if the government spends its funding less on scientific researches, it can lead to citizens’ complaints. This is because a lot of people consider science one of the most important fields for their own country. (근거가 필요한 문장) Government money is composed of citizens’ taxes, which means that they should have a say on how it is used. If people start to think that money is spent on less important matters, they are likely to lose trust in the government. For instance, in 2010, the American government announced that it would decrease its funds on science studies and increase its usage on military services. Many people around the country started to protest against this new policy, with activists rallying in front of City Halls. They demonstrated to persuade the government to reconsider the allocation of its funding on the ground that this policy is not one of their priorities.
In addition, when the government aids scientists with financial supports regardless of that their research does not have practical purposes, it can contribute to an increase in their overall performance in study. Being supported by the government requires them to be diligent, passionate, and self-disciplined. (근거가 필요한 문장) When these personal traits are enhanced, they are likely to bring a better result in their researches. For example, Georgetown University found a huge difference between two groups of young researchers. One group consisted of those who were offered 10,000 dollars every year for their study by the government, and the other group was made up of those who could not get any funding from the government. The researchers found that the former was more likely to have a higher level of performance in their research than the latter. To be specific, the first group showed a longer attention span, a strong passion in their tasks, and a better ability to delay their gratification. On the other hand, the second group tended to get distracted easily, procrastinate, and act on impulse. This implies that funding is the key to improve study performance. Without it, it would be difficult for researchers to get better results.
All things considered, it is my belief that my argument concerning this issue has been effectively and precisely delivered with the reasons I have mentioned above. Never should we forget that this topic may have a huge impact on our future.
