Not sure about the truth behind this but apparently there is a cure for cancer that the Pharma industry wants nothing to do with.. if true I am not surprised for obvious reasons but does anyone know about this treatment?

There is no reason for any pharma company (or any other for-profit business) to run clinical trials to prove if it works or not as trials are expensive and they would have no way to recoup the investment. This would be an example of a time that the "free market" fails.

So you need to convince either a government or a charity to fund the research (or a for-profit company to do it for charity/good pr). grin

The SETH Group did an experiment showing under time lapse microscope how TCH killed the cells of a specific brain cancer. However, there is no money in a cure that anyone can grow. If there is no money in it, there is no cure.

What's the last shit a doctor cured? Polio. You know how long ago polio was?
That's like the first season of Lucy. Sh**, Fred had an Afro with finger waves!
Have you ever met anybody with polio? Anybody feel a little 'polie' around you?
No. That's right, they don't cure sh**. The same diseases been hanging out
since l was a kid:

AlDS, sickle cell, tuberculosis, cancer,
Jerry's kids still limping around.

l've been watching the Jerry Lewis Telethon... for probably about 15 or 16 years now.
Not one stitch of progress whatsoever. Come on, man. Lie to me, Jerry!
What the fu** you doing, Jerry? Put a stick in the kid's back, prop him up or some sh**!
Come on, call Steven Spielberg. Get some special effects on this sh**!
Get George Lucas on the case! CGl, motherfu****! What the fu**!
Tie some string around him, make a cripple puppet or some sh**.
Lie to me! Where the fu** is the money going? What, to keep Jerry's hair black?
Where's the money going?

Think about it. Frank Sinatra: dead. Dean Martin: dead. Sammy Davis: dead.
Jerry Lewis got a full head of black hair. And if you ain't gonna cure the disease,
cut the kids a check! That's right, you know the little boy who's
getting ready to die? Get him a table dance. Get him a table dance, for Christ's sake!
l'm sure the Make-A-Wish people hear that request every now and then.
Get the boy a table dance.

''What do you want, Jimmy? You're dying. Wanna meet Jim Carrey?''

''No, l want some big titties in my face. lt's my last wish, come on.''

That's right, man. That's right, we got AlDS out there. You think they're gonna cure AlDS?
No, they can't even cure athlete's foot. They ain't curing AlDS. Sh**, they ain't never curing AlDS.
Don't even think about that shit. They ain't curing it, 'cause there ain't no money in the cure.
The money's in the medicine. That's how you get paid, on the comeback.
That's how a drug dealer makes his money, on the comeback.
That's all the government is: a bunch of motherfu**ing drug dealers,on the comeback.
They ain't curing no AlDS. That's all it is. You think they're gonna cure AlDS?
They're still mad at all the money they lost on polio!


Curing AlDS? Sh**, that's like Cadillac making a car that lasts for 50 years.
And you know they can do it...but they ain't gonna do nothing that fu**ing dumb.
Sh**, they got metal on the space shuttle that can go around the moon...
and withstand temperatures of up to 20,000 degrees. You mean to tell me you don't think
they can make an Eldorado...where the fu**ing bumper don't fall off?
They can, but they won't.

So what they will do with AlDS is the same thing they do with everything else.
They will figure out a way for you to live with it. They don't cure shit, they just patch it up.
Get you to the next stop, so they can get more of your money. They ain't gonna cure it.

Hopefully, in our lifetime, you're gonna see somebody go:

'Yo, man, you weren't at work yesterday What's up?'

'My AlDS is acting up. You know, when the weather get like this, my AlDS just pop up.'

Hos is there no money in it just because it can't be patented. Retarded argument.

The free market fails at what?

That's like saying that geometry fails because it won't mow your lawn.

Someone will make money by selling the pills. But if you don't have the patent on it, once you do all the research needed to prove that it works, anyone can make the pills. The generic pill producers will be ready to undercut the researchers as soon as they complete the trials.

On a side note, DCA is neurotoxic. grin

There is no reason to argue with a blind idealist who won't see or hear reason but instead stick to delusion, this is why I simply just mock you instead of wasting my time trying to convince you when you have clearly no idea of how science works or how the world works.
