There are cures for cancer, some really efficient... But sincerely the world is only thinking of money at this point.
But there is also other points, since cancer is really different from people to people and depends on the affected area... So I think some methods aren't really that efficient for the "global" cancer.
I've only seen some documentaries and read some stuff online, I'm not that into the subject so don't take this words so seriously, go search on the web if you more accurate information.
It's so sad how poisonous money can be. Greed.

No, cannabis oil doesn't cure cancer. I would bother to prove you wrong, but my instincts tell me any debate is futile.

It's actually true. There were medical files from the company who thought up chemotherapy of a plant that proved over 900% more effective towards helping fight cancer. But since it was a naturally growing plant they could patent it.

You can patent treatments, regardless of if they are of synthetic or natural origin.
By definition, chemotherapy is poisoning your body, so any increasdd effwftiveness isalso dubious.
Still, noone has addressed the larger point. Much more momey could be made by treating every instance of cancer, and every disease that occurs when the patient would have otherwise been dead.

"Overpopulation" I'm just going to point out that if there is a cure for cancer, while it may affect the population, it won't affect it very much. People will still die even if they get cancer treatment, so the only thing that will be different is the lifespan. The only things affecting the population are birth and death rates. The death rates will stay the same, but anything affecting overpopulation is cancer affecting reproductive organs. But you can't really tell how many more people with procreate if they hadn't had cancer. So, you never really know.

Indeed, but it's the world we live on, the world is modded in our own way... Even the animals suffer with our mistakes and selfishness

As much as the idea of the government keeping a "cure" for cancer secret to generate profit from sick patients, it's just another conspiracy theory... there isn't any real evidence to back up the claim and there never will be a single cure for cancer, at least not with current technology, there isn't just one singular type of cancer, there are lots and lots of different types, this makes finding just one wonder cure very hard to do, doesn't seem logical to me to assume that the government has already came across what would be one of the greatest medical discoveries in history and but kept quiet about it.

160 billion a year is nothing for an entire country. I call bullshit.

I say this a lot; the world isn't as interesting as you'd like it to be. Would it be a totally outrageous scandal if a conspiracy theory like this ended up being true? Of course. But things like these hardly ever proven to be true, simply because you're trying to conjure up some fictitious situation in an attempt to make the world more like a good movie or novel. Just like other conspiracy theories, such as the U.S. government planning and executing the attacks on 9/11 as an excuse for them to invade iraq, this theory is just trying to dramatize a fairly straight forward event in hopes to make it more interesting.

What I believe is that the cure for cancer has been found already and the pharmaceutical companies refuse to let the cure out because they will lose a lot of money on cancer suppressing medicine.
