Funding of Embryonic Stem Cell Research Blocked by Ruling
A federal judge temporarily blocks the Obama administration from using federal dollars to fund expanded human embryonic stem cell research, saying the research involves the destruction of embryos.

Lame or not, every side has a right to their day in court. I just wish the courts could decide this matter once and for all.

I am absolutely shocked at you!
Since when do you promote using ANY federal dollars for private enterprise??? Personally, I agree with the decision ... I see no need in investing federal money in a field which, if it showed as much potential as some think, would easily recieve the necessary private funding. Think about it - the applications of this field would be worth BILLIONS. It's true potential isn't as promising as it would seem according to the media, however. That's why they seek government money. Do I have some moral problem with embyronic stem cell research? Not at all. Frankly I think measurable brain activity should define life, and an embryo is not that. However, I don't want my tax dollars subsidizing any private industry, and although I can't stop them all, I'd prefer to stop the ones that show little promise. |
