    There was a reason US government was subsidizing it. That’s literally the only way US can stay competitive since private businesses don’t give a shit about investing in R&D. I would love to see continued breaking research from some dank non-sterile basement.

    I can’t help think that Chimp and The Villionaires are quashing the competition so that only they and their groupies cronies will have access to life and health extending treatments, that they will sell to the highest bidders.
