Why do scientist need money to do things like go to space or cure diseases? It's not like money magically creates resources we have all the tools to pretty much do whatever we want, why would money be a factor?

Scientists usually don’t use the same shitty equipment that the average high schooler encounters in a science class. If the money for expensive equipment comes out of the scientist’s pockets, how are they supposed to buy necessities to live?

Money is just an accounting system to keep track of things, its not a limiting factor on anything. Even a full soviet command economy where some king decrees things to get done would require an accounting system.
Soviets tried to ditch money by planning production and consumption strictly in terms of physical inputs. Like they would have recipes of what resources it took to build a truck or a house, and then plan budgets in terms of ingredients and man-hours rather than some money abstraction. Then they would order things to "get done". Existing resources and labor would get mixed at the planned recipe-formulas and products were physically created.
The initial idea was to then just give people physical compensation, like housing, clothing, bags of food, rather than money.
This idea is still used today at least for analysis of economies, and for non-central planning. Called input-output models.
Now, the soviets had A LOT of scientists, they alloted many physical resources to science, so essentially the farmers and factory workers had to hand over more of their physical production to SCIENCE

Because scientists are workers, not financiers, and workers are not responsible for procuring their own capital. Workers get capital to work, they add the work and the product of work+capital belongs to the financier.
Ther workers on their own are free to ask for capital or just go where the capital is. What scientists do is what all workers do, they dont beg for handouts but for capital to work.

The labor theory of value was proven to be a sham. The market has valued Science! as a high value product and pays for it. Quiet simply, rich people pay scientists to work for them, they provide them with the neccessary tools and pay their salaries, as they believe that scientific work is worth a lot more than what it costs to pay scientists and their tools.
Your preferences here dont matter, the market has spoken

Scientists only use the capital that is given to them by investors, whom give them money for the same reason that jews give aspiring rappers money, some of them will strike gold and pay them back all of the money spent.
Without scientific research profits would be much smaller. Scientific research is risky, like funding a rapper, yet the rapping business as a whole makes money no matter if 99% of rappers never make money.
The scientist is just a wagie of the financiers, working for the financiers. He gets his salary and capital to work, but the profit is form the financier.
In summary, they dont waste money, they produce money, on average, same as any other worker

Not gibs, but capital and working compendation given to them, exactly the same as any other worker gets. All workers get capital to use and a salary. I for instance use machinery worth about 2 million dollars, it isnt mine but i use it, plus i get a salary and my boss gets profit. Thats a typical worker-financier arrangement.

Scientists produced every single piece of scientific knowledge that exists. Their research is the basis for every technology that exists, this knowledge is mixed up with some fake research but its no major issue discarding that garbage, mostly because its impossible to use fake research in producing technology.
The replication crisis just reduced the financial efficiency of scientific research, not nullifies it. Is this too nuanced for you?

Scientists produce scientific research, which is the basis for all technology. Their work is extremely productive and useful but only on average. A lot of scientific research turns out to be lies or not a lie but useless, yet on average its still useful.
Just discard the bad research and keep the gems. Its the same in any industry BTW, its called quality control, not everything produced in a production line can be offered for sale, products get tested and the bad ones get destroyed or sent back for repairs.
In science theres two methods for quality control: Peer review before publication of research, which is broken, but theres ongoing peer review after publication, by literally everyone that reads papers.
It can take many years to catch some lies, even a generation, but they get discovered in the end because nothing in fake research can be reproduced by others.

>it was invented by uneducated bicycle salesmen, not scientists
Sure it was, the Wright brothers did science. They had experiments they tested and improved upon, hypothetical designs that did or didn't work, and eventually produced a machine that could fly.
How is that not science?
One who does science is a scientist. Any other meaning of the word is overbearing and stupid.

Because human greed makes pure, efficient, nonsugarcoated slavery hard to implement.

Claiming credit for other people's work is intellectual property theft.

1. People need resources to live
2. People have a limited time to acquire resources
3. Unless there is a way to acquire the needed resources otherwise, People will do so directly.
4. If a person does not acquire resources directly, they must get them from someone else.
5. Other people will have conditions by which they give that person their resources.
6. If the person does not satisfy those conditions he will not get those resources from other people.
7. People such as scientists are not exempt from these factors and nor are anyone else.
8. Thus scientists must meet the conditions required to get resources required for their experiments from other people.
9. Goods throughout the entire world regardless of country are generally distributed according to posession of bartering tokens (money).
10. Other people require money for to get resources to live
11. Thus they will require the scientist to pay them for the resources they need for their experiments.
12. Thus scientists need money.
Now that we've gotten past basic kindergarten economics we can talk about something meaningful.

Why do people need money to do things like go to work or acquire necessary goods? It's not like money magically creates resources we have all the tools to pretty much do whatever we want, why would money be a factor?

If scientists are so smart how come the can't figure out how to earn the money needed for their projects instead of greedily thieving that money from unwilling contributors like a bunch of leeches?

Being smart doesn't necessarily mean you can absolutely convince stupid people to behave in non stupid ways and its usually more a matter of morality, sure the scientists could make scam scratchers and photoshopped onlyfans to leech from the stupid people instead of being transparent and asking large organizations, but they would then be guilty and tard rage would likely ensure anyway.
