Making money from illness

Dear Editor:

Thousands of pcople die
each year from cancer. As of
now, there is no known cure
for it, despite the fact that
millions of dollars are spent
annually on cancer research.
The question is, can the
medical profession afford to
find a cure for cancer? The
answer is, definitely not.
They simply can nut afford
to research their way out of
very well-paying jobs. Our
system works well for them,
as it does for other profes-
sions.

For example, in the
religious faith business, we
are told to have faith in a
good God, though no logical
reasons are given; yet it is
the devil who is the greatest
financial asset to the
religious faith business. Is
this why devil worship is on
the increase?

Similarly, although our
justice system practices and
preaches justice, it is crime
and criminals that are their
financial assets. Capital
punishment and stiff
sentences are not good for
the crime business.

Thus, the greatest finan-
cial asset the medical profes-

sion has is sickness, not
heaith. Our politicians have
tealized how the system
works and therefore make
laws allowing the profes-
sional the freedom to exploit
our highly-educated, ig-
norant people.

Try to imagine how many
jobs would be lost if our
medical profession
discovered a cure for cancer.
What if the cure was based
on something so simple as
proper diet, exercise and
common sense; something
they could not exploit?

There is no doubt in my
mind that neither our medi-
cal profession, nor our polit-
ical system could afford a
cure for cancer at this time.
Should a cure be found, it
may weil be declared illegal.

It seems that every time ~

that someone claims to have
found a cure for cancer, our
medical profession has the
Jegal right to step into the
picture to claim that only
they are allowed and licensed
to cure the sick.

Recently, cancer patients
have claimed that a certain
tea, called Taheebo tea, has
been beneficial to them.
Naturally, although it is only
a tea which has been on the
