The stem-cell controversy is much staged by drug companies and the like who want govt. funding.
We spend $6 billion a year on tax money trying to cure AIDS --a disease that is 100% preventable (excluding blood transfusion recipients and babies born to infected mothers). Most diseases are lucky to get $100 million a year in taxpayer funding for research.
Stem cell research has the potential to cure many horrible ailments. It is a far worthier investment than the billions spent trying to cure AIDS.
Really. His wife could fund some serious research. But of course the tax payers should pay for it instead.
Oh and by the way, Kerry, I agree with you - stem cell research IS moral...when done with adult cells. It's the embryonic - and so far completely unsuccessful - kind that's wholly immoral.
