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.

The words "from overheads" do not belong in that sentence. They are slashing billions in biomedical research.

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.
