Should federal taxpayer money go to support the research of stem cells taken from human embryos?
Asked at Borders, 700 N.H. on January 12, 2007
“No. I think there needs to be more research on it before it's federally funded to find out if it's really going to be worthwhile.”
— Brenda Mullins, special education paraeducator, Lecompton
“Yes. It just makes sense for the common good.”
— David Graham, Kansas University professor, Lawrence
“I think it should, because it could be beneficial in so many different ways.”
— Jessica King, KU sophomore, Lawrence
“Yeah. It could lead to life-saving cures for cancer and many other diseases. From what I've heard, the embryos that they use for the research are those that are being thrown out anyway.”
— Jared Rose, lawyer, Lawrence
