We are a commerce driven society and that is a fact. If there is a "Cure" for cancer it will be costly and available only to those who can afford it or have the insurance to pay for it. In Canada one would have to wait for the cure while the rich will cut through lines (The goal of privatized health care).

On the other hand watch Forks over Knives. It is fantastic and inspiring and in the local library.

The "Cure for Cancer" exists, but not the way western people want it to because we would have to quit our way of life. What we want is a cure for our way of life.
