>> The use of fetal stem cells alows a company to mass produce cells and sell them at a huge profit.

What in the world is wrong with profits???? If companies aren't making profits, they certainly aren't sending checks to the government to support liberal spending. They won't be hiring. Their stock will tank affecting your 401k.

At my company, we celebrate profits. It means we did good.

It's amazing to me how Democrats have spun the "evil" of capitalism. A company's profit the size of a waitress tip is BAD. The same company may be paying three times the amount of profits in taxes. That's the tragedy.

Nothing, except in this case where a better, moral route is being ignored because it won't be quite the cash cow the poor, immoral route will be.

Of course if you have to kill a few babies to make some money, hey, they were small anyway. Just make sure your stock doesn’t tank affecting my 401K and I won’t have any problem with a little killing here and there. No offense, but profits aren't the highest good. It is fine to seek profits, and a company has a duty to do so, but that duty must be sought by moral means, and creating/killing fetuses for profit is not moral.

It's loser's envy that they attack. Politicians on both sides of the isle create laws that empower bureaucrats to rip at market-driven and profit-driven businesses. The right denounces the market driven while the left denounces the profit driven, IMO
