I could be wrong, but I suspect that all of this money being thrown at research cloning could end up in a new “dot-com” type bust—only this time with public money since private investors are generally shunning investing in cloning companies.
This story that a pet cloning company has closed its doors adds credence to my views. Cloning is a difficult and expensive technology, even more so in humans than in animals. If after we “invest” billions into cloning research and it is a bust, who will pay the price? Taxpayers!
