First of all you avoided my question. Telling. Secondly,
As for your argument about the efficiency of the private sector over the government, no business is going to invest in something that won't produce returns for 20, 30, or 40 years. From HHS website:
"Based on 2002 data, . . . private sector research and development in stem cells was being conducted by approximately 1000 scientists in over 30 firms. Aggregate spending was estimated at $208 million. Geron Corporation alone reported that it spent more than $70 million on stem cell research by September 2003."
Do you want me to go on to show how wrong you are on the other point you made, or do you just want to go on mindlessly baiting people?
