Capitalism Can Solve the "Replication Crisis" in Science

The key to change is Q, the socialist science sucker from Section I.

Q is smart. Q is a socialist science sucker only because socialist science fails to sufficiently discourage the publication of inaccurate information by failing to hold A sufficiently accountable for being wrong. Q is a socialist science sucker only because Q has had no other
option. Q now has another option. Before launching a one year, one million dollar research project motivated by a result produced by socialist science, Q can spend ten days
and ten thousand dollars on a few questions to check it out. Before investing ten million dollars on a new materials science innovation, venture capitalists can anonymously conduct due diligence with a convenience and at a depth hitherto unimaginable.

Relying on free information of questionable accuracy produced by socialist science can be very costly. Q is smart; Q is accustomed to paying for things of value; and Q’s stakes are high.
