Why the American government should fund stem cell research

I believe stem cells should be researched and used to cure diseases.First isolated by John Hopkins Medical Institution in 1997It was originally used on elderly cows whose age is equivalent to an 80 year old woman.
Stem cells could cure diseases that are incurable such as HIV and cancer.
It could also prevent long term diseases such as autism,diabetes and cerebral palsy.

I may also eliminate the risks of heart attacks and strokes.
Stem cells work by replacing dysfunctional cells and blood vessels.
If used in aging they could boost and rejuvenate the cells such
aging diseases like osteoporosis and Alzheimer's.
Why cant we research it There isn't enough funding for the research.In 1997-98 Government banned the use of federal funding to be used in anyway.Stems could help make life for the individual.It possibly could make it worse for people.It could also cause more diseases.We wont know less we research it.So if u believe it to call the john Hopkins and see what you can do to help out the research.www.JohnHopkins.com
That is why i believe we should research and use stem cells.If we can hlp prevent and cure why not do it.If it was the leader of the government and is family he would proboly allow fundings he needs to walking someone elses shoes,skin,life whatever and fund the research.
