A mixed bag of issues.
Immigration: this is not about science. It's about logic and common sense. The solution is to spend the money trying to help create a better economy in the countries whose people attempt to enter the US illegally, and have been doing so for 75+ years.
NAFTA was an attempt to create a strategic solution, but it fell short of the goal, as it was politicized from the get go, and Clinton's approach was not fully explained to American voters, and abused by corrupt politicians in Mexico.
Energy Policy: is it science? not really. It's policy and the courage to do the right thing. Science provided solutions that enable us to embark on a better future for humanity. Politicians and fear are preventing a proper implementation.
Guns: there is no science involved here.
Traffic: Science provides a lot of solutions. The pandemic already proved that a good percentage of workers do not need to show up to the office every day, and even blue collar jobs, can be re-distributed to locals. We need policies in place to start pushing this forward.
Prisons? Yes, they are needed to house the violent offenders. But, in the USA, they're simply grad schools for junior offenders, not correctional facilities.
Science is not failing, politicians are.
