PCAST is an advisory group of the nation’s leading scientists and engineers who directly advise the President and the Executive Office of the President. PCAST makes policy recommendations in the many areas where understanding of science, technology, and innovation is key to strengthening our economy and forming policy that works for the American people. PCAST is administered by the Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP)."
Is it normal for a President to have so many advisers, such as czars, that are not appointed by the people and have no accountability?
All of the czars is a way for the Executive Branch to gain more and more control. It is growing larger everyday . . . Eventually, the other branches will become stifled by the Executive Branch.
