> Curing cancer was never the goal.

You're starting to lose me. Your statement might be correct for the most actuarial-brained monsters at the top of the executive foodchain but I think the research scientists and doctors would disagree with you.

> Finding out how to give people cancer and treat it was.

And here I think you've veered from legitimate criticism of the for-profit healtcare system into some serious whack conspiracy territory.

It also assumes the most-actuarial-brained monsters aren't worried about any competition from other monsters that can take their patients away with a better cure.

While that's possible--ensuring competition is an ongoing issue in the American economy--it's still one more bad-star that has to align to get a real disaster*.

*Yes, I know there's etymological repetition there and I like it.

which "Cancer" are you talking about?

[vouaobrasil]

It's rather sick isn't it? Especially when curing cancer as a business benefits from an increase in technology which in turn is a producing of endless chemicals that end up in our drinking water and food and air.
