Well, judging from all the processed food ads in this comm alone, I'm not so surprised.

But that knowledge doesn't make it any less sad. D:

I think there has been a lot of progress... a couple of particular types of cancer can be cured now, some can be prevented, and treatment and awareness have greatly improved. But still, I get your point, and I wonder if we'll be looking back in 40 years' time and still thinking the same thing.

This sounds morbid, but considering all of the oncology specialists who'd be put out of business, whether they may not be some "underground" resistance in that "industry" to hold back the cure (paralleling the oil companies' resistance to green energy, etc).

I hope not, but people's wallets talk more than their hearts sometimes.

i agree with that theory...cancer fighting is a billion dollar industry and if there was a cure all those people/places would be out of work....
