What you call it is "education," in most of the cases.

As such, maybe I should have said "it's only evil when you don't agree with the group that's doing it." Because I would very much like to do social engineering about some things; the most basic one is instilling some awareness of science and the scientific method in everyone to reduce the gullibility coefficient of the society in general.

I like that answer! It leaves out taxes, subsidies, regulations, etc., but for a snappy answer I like it a lot.
