Must the governments of the world appropriate at least half of their funds exclusive for scientific reseach ?

Question

The purpose is to encourage people to petition their respective governments to give priority and importance to the endeavor exclusive for the Scientific Research by appropriating half of the State Funds for such.

Answer 1

Scientific research must be given priority by the governments of countries since these will be used for many purposes that are beneficial to humankind.

Answer 2

50%? How did you arrive at that? Via a scientific approach? Seems unliely to me (a math major in college) that any math process would give such a convenient nd round number.

So if you have no real good reason to justify the number, then why would it inspire faith in anyone to apply it when there are other pressing needs as well?
