According to the government's own figures, breast cancer, all by itself - not including any other female specific cancers - receives more government funding than all male and childhood specific cancers combined. This does not include the benefit concerts, the big Hollywood names, the New York elite cocktail parties, the corporate tie-ins, or the breast cancer portion of the American Cancer Society funds.
It's big business, with the deepest pockets of all the "disease specific" charities. The battle to maintain this status quo will be fought fiercly and no quarter will be given to anyone who threatens to upset the apple cart.
"The battle to maintain this status quo will be fought fiercly and no quarter will be given to anyone who threatens to upset the apple cart." Yeah, I know, but thanks for the warning. My training in various FreeRepublic.com battles will help me tremendously, no doubt. I've been in FR boot camp. For victory & freedom!!!
