I Worked to Cure ALS. Then Washington Shut Down the Project

A lot of this stuff is a dead end. I think funding it by issuing equity is almost certainly going to be far more efficient. Investors tend to do a ton of research trying to figure out if your stuff is going to work or not and it's their money they're risking, not mine.

Reading this, there's no way of knowing whether the specific program was shut down because of malicious compliance or other reasons.

We might also say that we all love kittens. Should the state fund kitten rescue? If we all love kittens so much, why aren't more individuals banding together to save them? As it stands many people do care about animal welfare and donate heavily to nonprofits which support kittens.

Claiming, "Washington shut down my kitten rescue operation" is a deliberate, politically motivated misframing of the issue.
