Should public money fund controvercial research?
Stop asking questions and fork it over.
When a new buzzword enters the lexicon of news anchors, go long on it costing taxpayers a fortune as soon as lobbyists figure out how to use it to pan for gold in legislatures across the country.

The current debate over public funding of stem cell research is a good example.
