re: #93 DeafDog
Cynic that I am, I think these scientists want more federally funded R&D because there is less stringency there in terms of being held accountable for results.
A lot of the biotech R&D will be lost if 0bama sticks us with a national health care system, because the government isn’t going to want to pay for expensive new drugs.
Right now, they think they want a national health care system so more people can afford medication, but they’ll be unpleasantly surprised when even the Democrats won’t fund it well enough to give everybody the new medicines.
