18. wow, that's a mind-blower
What about those super-pure chemical drugs in outer space (crystal-formation under conditions of anti-gravity), I wonder if this is still a priority for NASA these days? I wonder if there's a suggestion to increase NASA's funding for this. That would encourage private pharmaceutical companies and private enterprise, and they probably are very much on the right.

Is it the same ones who are supporting the medical boycotts against Cuba, a country which develops free vaccines to 3rd world countries? The boycott only increases the expenses for the Republic of Cuba to actually get their product out there to the people that need it, but can't afford it. A cost that can and should be avoided for scientific and medical and ethical reasons. But not political!
