Feel free to create your own university where you can do this sort of research in a discriminatory way. Have fun with the litigation afterwards. Also, explain to the peer reviewers that they just need to get over the hangup, too, when you try to publish your research.

"Feel free to create your own university where you have the funding for petri dishes. In the meantime, I'm going to publish without them, because I feel like this tissue culture I'm growing on my lunch is statistically significant."

Just because I am not personally entitled (by funding, by ethics, by career position) to collect the necessary data to demonstrate a hypothesis, does not make that hypothesis demonstrable with lesser data.
