Like it or not, federal funds find their way into every laboratory in academia. For many or most, it's the only way they can survive.

You may not consider it "regulation" but allocating 10 billion dollars for cancer research and shutting off all federal funds for any laboratory that gets near stem cells is regulation.

If the federal government gave ten million dollars to everyone on your street that didn't paint their house green, that's regulating the color of houses.

So either stay out of it all together, or don't regulate science based on what the biblical crowd tells you.
