Except for the geophysicists who work for Mobil, the molecular
biologists who work Genentech, the chemists who work for Dupont,
the mathematicians who work for EMI, the solid state physicists
who work for IBM, etc.  Yes, many scientists work for "Big
Brother", perhaps most if you count any degree of federal funding
as doing so, but "just about every" overstates things just a bit
much.
