Yea, But along with Federal funding comes a lot of extra rules and regulations. Private funded researchers tend to not waste money like their Fedraly funded counterparts, and can make the most rapid advances. Once private research has found a proven technology, then the Federal dollars will flow. Most medical advances actualy start this way. IMHO the media is over playing this issue to further the "Progressive Ideologies" which includes abortion and euthenasia. While Embryonic stem cells "MIGHT" be the answer, there is no proof that it is more promising than stem cells harvested from the person needing treatment. Until that proof unfolds, I'd rather see our gov err on the side of caution in regards to ethics. Stunt
