As long as a billion dollars are donated for cancer research every year the cure will be forever on the back shelves of the labs. What are the benefits to the thousands of people drawing huge salaries to put a cure on the shelves of your local drugstore? Unemployment!
If the money stopped coming in, it would leave only one way for the companies to continue making money... start selling the cure!
With thousands of top scientist, provided with the best technology known to man kind, working daily for over 50 years... should'nt someone have came up with something by now... or have they? Job security appears to be more important than saving a relatives or close friends life.
Cures for smallpox and other deadly diseases were developed without the money and technology available today. So with the all of the tools provided to these brilliant researchers why are they still looking through microscopes everyday at the same things they looked at 10-50 years ago? Again.... UNEMPLOYMENT!
When the big money stops coming in, the cures for all types of cancer will be available!

Cancer is almost a catch-all for many varied conditions and syndromes.
Some have had great measures of success, such as leukemia, while others have not.

Cancer researchers are not a large group of united conspiratorial companies. They are competitive individual companies and research groups vying for the same limited funding and trying to get positive results before the others do.

If a "cure" were to be found, the finder and his company could probably afford to have Bill Gates mow their lawns. I don't think anyone is holding anything back.

Since the cracking of the Human DNA Genome,many possibilites now
exist.Maybe not fast enough,because the FDA generally takes it's
sweet time when introducing a new drug.
But some studies that are relevant,seem to go unheeded.
Like I read where a study,that isn't talked about mush,has PROVED
that charred meat { Meat that is burnt on a grill } and many who
barbeque,still love to do that,is definately responsible for Cancer in Rats.
It makes perfect sense.Eating meat that is blackened and charred,
does seem to be bad for one.Something about how processed meat,when
grilled under high temp and charred,turns the char into a human poison.
And many an American go happily around feasting on the char,as if
it's mere crunchy potato chips.No Difference.
If most Americans would stop and think about the things they
do with their Diets and what they breathe.
Like Trans Fats.I try not to consume stuff from fast food that
is saturated in vats of Oil.
I do rather prefer Olive Oil and Sauteeing.
