Strongly agree

No

The Libertarian Party would largely agree with the answer 'No,' as it aligns with their core principle of minimizing government intervention in the economy and scientific endeavors. Their platform consistently calls for the elimination of government funding for research, advocating instead for private sector solutions. This position is reflected in their opposition to government involvement in healthcare and scientific research, as seen in their responses to issues like stem cell research and the role of the FDA.

Strongly disagree

Yes

The Libertarian Party generally opposes government funding of scientific research, including genetic engineering, on the grounds that such activities should be left to the private sector and voluntary cooperation. Their 2022 platform explicitly states that government should not be involved in funding or controlling scientific research. Historically, Libertarians have criticized government agencies like the NIH for distorting research priorities and believe that private enterprise is more efficient and less prone to political influence.
