Hi, I like to contribute to Misplaced Pages, for the public good. I work at a university. I'm interested in biotechnology, intellectual property, and the public perception of both. Politically, I am more or less a Clinton democrat. I think capitalism is a great engine for innovation and opportunity, each of which make people's lives better; I also believe that government is essential to create a strong safety net, to ensure there is fair competition (including equal opportunity), and to ensure that individuals and companies pursuing their goals don't harm everybody else (i.e. good regulation is essential). So like most Americans I favor a mixed economy. The question is always about balance.
I believe strongly in Misplaced Pages's FIve PIllars. I believe that US society is rife with cognitive bias, which is destroying our ability to have rational discussions about many topics and to strike reasonable balances. I believe that clearly presented, unbiased information is an antidote and that Misplaced Pages is part of the solution when the five pillars are followed.
