Is it not the case now that oligarchs "own" intellectual credibility? Becoming a credentialed mathematician requires an entire lifetime of devotion, lots of money or scholarships, and association with institutions controlled by monied interests. Token spend is arguably cheaper, and although still paid to monied interests, lowers the bar for real participation in mathematics. |
