Politicians aren't qualified to do science, so they shouldn't meddle in it. Science is the best tool we know for getting closer to truth, and the results of science give us power over our environment.
Politicians should use the results of science in their decision making process. They could put limits on technologies that could harm society, but they shouldn't limit or interfere with science itself.
