ABSTRACT
The author believes that greater inclusivity will yield substantial long-term benefits for social psychology. These are of three types: costs to (non-liberal) individual researchers, costs to the scientific integrity of our research, and costs to the credibility of social psychology. Politicians on the right might want to de-fund social science research regardless of the ideological make-up of social science researchers. People may learn to develop enough of Earths natural resources to have plenty of them. The only way that one can call disagreement with these factual statements denial is to assume that the answers favored by political liberals are correct by definition. In 2013, an amendment introduced by Republican Senator Tom Coburn eliminated National Science Foundation (NSF) funding for nearly all political science research, and in 2006 Republican Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison proposed eliminating NSF social science funding entirely.
