We train a huge proportion of scientists only to send them into the private sector to a)develop finance algorithms, b) targeted ad software, etc, because the science jobs just aren't there for even a third of them. Give them good paying science jobs at Universities and they'd stay.

Why would you need scientists at Universities that do nothing when you have Musk with his private corporations? I thought he alone can solve any technical problem after a little bit of hard working.
