I saw someone's sig that made my stomach turn.
That I should vote Democratic so stem cell reasearch can be funded. But why should the government fund it?
Private agencies fund research that works. If it doesn't get funding from the private sector then why should the government fund it? The reason that stem cell reasearch fails to get backing from those that matter, businesses, is that it isn't working. There are no groundbreaking things coming from it. There is nothing exciting about it. I am not saying that it should not be done however for the citizens of the United States to fund something that is showing little to no promise is foolish.
It's sad to see people suffering from diseases that have no cure. s**t sucks. However putting false hope into something that is not showing very promising results is not only an insult to them but to everyone. Micheal J. Fox funds all sorts of research and they have found lots of interesting things that look very promising.
None of which has to do with the destruction of test tube babies.
What I am saying is that please INFORM YOURSELF before you go and vote. Do not let your emotions sway yourself. In my person case,
I don't want higher taxes
I don't want $4000 coming out of my parents yearly income for taxes that would be repealed
I don't want to abandon a country that we are obligated to help
I don't want more people on the system
I don't want a national healthcare system that people are not going to pay for, but I will
I don't want illegal immigrants getting a free pass for citizenship
So I'm not voting for the Democrats because they represent -nothing- about what I want. Think about the bigger issues and not just one. You'll be suck with your choice for 2 to 6 years if you don't.
