Fox in the Ethics Henhouse

Not many of us would want the federal government to leave military procurement to defense contractors, Medicare reimbursement to doctors or banking regulation to Citigroup.

That assertion came in reference to research on the use of embryonic stem cells to find treatments for various diseases.
