What kind of scientists? Natural scientists, or social scientists? Cuz both are horrible, but one's significantly more horrifying than the other.

Edit: I apologise for the misunderstanding. English is not my first language. What I meant was that if people would trust businesspeople over natural scientists in matters of social issues, that is already bad, but if people would trust businesspeopls over social scientists in matters of social issues, that's a significantly worse judgement to make.
