  The Nine Inch Nails Theory of Entrepreneurship

  Interesting and encouraging!
  
  I wonder whether/how this theory will develop in other industries. E.g. Selling tuberculosis or HIV/AIDS drugs at a low price to people living in poverty in developing countries. There has been a huge argument about whether it's do-able.

  Abstinence only education needs to be stopped

  Alanna & all -
  
  The PEPFAR II  has eliminated the hard earmark on abstinence, which you mentioned in your article as " 33% of all HIV prevention funds - 20% of the PEPFAR budget ". (i.e. H.R. 5501, Lantos/Hyde U.S. Leadership Against AIDS, TB, and Malaria Act of 2008 signed by President Bush in July 2008)
