The medical establishment has promised a cancer cure for more than 50 years and has nothing significant to show for it. "Cancer centers" will stop at nothing to get money from cancer victims who apparently will spend their last dime in futile attempts to "survive". "Children's" cancer centers are absolute pits of despair and hypocricy.
We should terminate federal funding of cancer research (its a government white-collar jobs program for the medical field) and face the fact that we all die someday.
Simultaneously significant effort should be spent ensuring that death from cancer is not painful. That is, give cancer patients the drugs necessary to relieve their pain. For some reason I am reluctant to watch yet another cancer victim writhing and sweating in pain as he/she slips into a 3-week coma and imminent death.
