Scientists just made a cow that produces human insulin in its milk.
Do people see why we have to fund science???
This milk can kill people by accident through insulin overdose if they drink it like regular milk
If any of these cows escape and breed with the general population then it will cause all milk to potentially kill people by accidental insulin overdose
This confirms my points that more restrictions are needed on genetic engineering especially in relation to food
And that taxpayers should not fund science
@shortstories ok I’m with you on the restrictions but scientific research should absolutely be funded by tax payer money.
Bioengineering gets insanely expensive and no company will have more money than the government.
I’m also saying this presupposing a net tax payer voter system.
And about the overdose problem, you can just dilute the milk or filter out the insulin. More will come of this and it will work.
Government funded bioengineering is used for unethical things like fake vaccines
One of the reasons bioengineering is expensive is because of the potential for lawsuits
A lot of government funded research is fraud
Government funded research tends to use statistical significance tests instead of hard science formulas with a predicted output for a specific input because government officials tend to come from social or soft science backgrounds and not hard science backgrounds
@shortstories “Government funded bioengineering is used for unethical things lie fake vaccines.
