But I understand a few facts of life. #1 Money makes the world go round.  If you look at the cutting edge in pharmacuticals, and every other from of medical science, since WW2 you're going to find US profit mongering companies and universities at the root of most of the discoveries. I'd guess somewhere around 85%. Look around the world and find out all the medications/medical breakthroughs used to treat real problems in the last 30 years and I bet you can find 10 US discoveries to match each.  Take the money (potential profit) out of the equation and you're going to find yet another way government can spend money with worse results than the private sector.[/QUOTE]
