Anyone can buy a telescope to observe space and sometimes even make discoveries, so it's a no-brainer that you should have a similar access to the appropriate technology if your scientific interests involve something else, say, the brain. Some groups are already making that happen for amateur neuroscientists. One is the Brooklyn startup OpenBCI, now back on Kickstarter with a new 3D printed EEG headset and development board that you can use to study patterns of brain activity or create more inventive projects like a mind-controlled shark balloon.
These guys have been at Maker's Faire the last couple of years. Pretty good example of a knock-on technology from 3D printing and microcontroller movements.

So if it had said "crowdfunding" instead of "Kickstarter", you would have been fine with it? Crowdfunding is not like "made in USA".
