It is not intentional. What happens, I think, is that it gives priority as
much as it can to science, and then runs its treasure down to the minimum.
This causes the AI to bump the want for gold, and jack up the tax rates.
It is also possible it caused things it wants to buy (production).

I would have to look closer at this, but I am unsure how bad this problem
is.
