The advancement of science

I was thinking earlier, why do scientists spend so much time being serious? They spend millions, and their entire lives trying to cure a disease. It's a nobel profession for sure, but surely people would be happier and would enjoy a better quality of life if we live for the moment? So, why don't scientists try to do something 'neat', or 'cool', such as converting some animals into pokemon, or making all the cars insanely nice, etc...
Then, I had a better idea.

What should be done is that all scientists, either from the world, or just the western world should unite and form a union, sort of. This union could be sub-divided into many different catagories, such as Cancer Research, Casual Research (For things designed souly to make us happy), Automotive, Aeronautical, Other health, etc...
Therefore there would be more scientists working in conjunction with one another, helping eachother out, and it is far more likely that things would be resolved better with more scientists working together.

Funding wouldn't be a problem either. It could come from both the governments taxes which, a large amount is used on research anyway, and then could recieve extra help from charitable donations. Therefore, we'd have many scientists working on a large number of differing persuits, and we'd have a lot of funding for these persuits.

It might work. I doubt it'd ever become a reality though.
