I don’t believe this is a conspiracy, just simple corporate logic. There is really no money in cures. The money is in treatment. Therefore, research is aimed at treatments. You seldom read the word “cure.” Also, the cost of getting a drug or process certified by the FDA is prohibitively large. A cure, which is used once, would never pay for the cost of testing and certification. It doesn’t matter how large the potential buyer pool is.
If the litigious atmosphere of today was the same in the 1930’s, then Polio would still only be treated; not cured. Anybody who got the “cure” and weren’t cured would surely sue.
Which is precisely the problem of society. We’re no longer interested in actually solving problems, but in fact making them continue in their present form.
That's an excellent point. I'll even take it one step further . . . There is really no money in dealing with healthy people, either -- so a lot of people in government and business have a vested interest in fabricating "diseases" that are really nothing more than normal variations in characteristics of human beings.
Three words; Polio, Dr. Salk.
