Perhaps gubmnt research funding should be directed towards various
diseases in pro****tion to the amount currently spent by taxpayers
(Medicaid, Medicaid) in treating them... Of course, I'm opposed to
gubmnt funding of such research in the first place, and much of what is
considered "treatment" for AIDS isn't treatment at all; see
