that cancer is an incredibly curable disease, but there is more money in long term care so the research and development doesn't get funded.


forgive me if i think this is bullshite. a legit cure would make so much money hand over foot initially that it would attract plenty of investors who are looking for a quick bang and not a long term stream of revenue. not to mention the good pub that goes with curing cancer.

Yeah I'm not sold on the cancer cure conspiracy, either. I think of all the money we spend on the current treatments: chemotherapy and radiation. And basically no one in this country is denied these. Meaning that tons of public funds are paying for it in many if not most cases. I'm crying bullshite.

It's a cute theory. I would have bought it hook, line, and sinker when I was 19. Then I would have hit the bong, again, looked around the room through roofy eyes, and muttered "Capitalism sucks" before settling back on the sofa.

Spot on.

A cure for cancer would be the most profitable drug ever created.
