Do you believe then that scientists should have a blank check for any form of science they would like to research? I don't.

I personally believe that we should have a crystal ball which will tell us the result and future applications of all currently-contemplated research projects. Then we just need to look into the crystal ball and pick the silly lizard venom studies that lead to life-changing and life-saving results for hundreds of millions of people, and we can ignore the silly lizard venom studies that yield nothing!

Super easy!
