I initially thought you'd missed the point, since obviously access to healthcare has been a big political issue recently. The point that so many people cannot afford medical care in the states seemed very important (albeit a bit of a tangent). However, then I saw that the comment was about not being able to afford care at John Hopkins' in particular - and admittedly that seems rather more petty.
I absolutely agree that this research is important and that, when it does have a practical use for humans, it is important that people should be able to benefit from it, preferably regardless of income or social status. :)
