The government cut off federal funding for research involving human embryos in 1996, but the ban had no power over privately funded reseach. Now the government funds research on existing embryonic stem cell lines of cells removed and stored in the past, but scientists believe that they need more or research will be very slow. what do you think the government should do?

Do you believe adult stem cell research should be funded (it is now) which does not require a life but the cells are not as flexible and may not be as useful.
