It's generally called ethics. I'd rather our government not support turning women into baby factories just so they can make money selling the aborted fetuses. Sure there may be some wonderful discoveries just around the corner, but at what price are we willing to make those discoveries.
You are aware that there are thousands of cryogenically stored fetuses that are routinely destroyed every year when they aren't used after invetro fertilization? Any of these could be used in research, rather then just becoming medical waste. Oh and why exactly is it Ok for a woman to get an abortion, but then not be allowed to donate/sell the resulting material for scientific research? I believe that the placenta can also be used for this research, rather then just being disposed of after normal deliveries.
