Why is there a lack of suitable employment for talented scientists?

Genius is born from the individual’s karma, yet it is society's structures that determine whether that brilliance finds its rightful place or is lost in the shadows of bureaucracy and politics.

— Osho
According to Osho, the scarcity of suitable jobs for gifted scientists arises because the birth of scientific genius is karmic and individual, while opportunities are social and structural. Talent may appear anywhere, but employment depends on a society’s infrastructure, funding, meritocracy, and freedom from bureaucracy and politics—factors often misaligned with the scientist’s needs, forcing migration or wasted potential.

Brilliant scientists are born from inner causes, but whether they can work depends on how well a society is set up—if it’s political or underfunded, they can’t thrive and may leave.
