If there is a cure, it'll become known thru the research of many organizations. The TNA is just one, that is not in the big pharma pocket- there are others. Until then, if I can take a pill that makes me feel better, I could care less as to the politics. Just make it affordable, thru masss buying power and negotiated prices.

I have read predictions that in the near future taking pills will become obsolete.

The drug research is focusing on biological interventions that are immensely expensive and require invasive injection into the body or spinal cord or brain. It will become very political as to who will be approved for these new treatments. Money will rule even more so than it does now.

my daughter who is 12 commented to me a few weeks ago that any portrayal of the future that she sees is not positive in the least. Compare that to the 1964 and expo 67 world fairs i went to as a kid at 7 and 10 in which a positive future was portrayed with many new inventions and work saving devices leavingus free for more leisure. I feel sorry for these kids today. At some time you would hope people will say enough is enough.

Stem cells have the potential to cure many conditions that cause a great deal of suffering. I would love to see children grow to be healthy adults. I would love to see spinal cord injured people walk again. I would love to see people condemned to death by genetic condtions have a shot at life. I wouuld love to see Parkinson's, Disease, Alzheimers and Neuropathy fade away.

I am all for stem cell research.

Now, if one wants to bear a litter, or have a kid with a certain eye color...not so much.
