I was reading something, somewhere, that was talking about some guy on an infomercial(?) that was talking about how drug companies don't want to give out cures for common diseases (cancer, diabetes, HIV, etc etc), because they make more money from prolonging life from these diseases, rather than curing it outright. Of course, he also said he had cures for them in his book, which I doubt work. Regardless, such a thing makes sense. Drug Companies do make more from this, and he's not the only one to make such a point. I think Chris Rock has said something to this effect in one of his stand-ups. While I don't know if they ever did find a cure, I think if they did, they would rather go the above route than actually curing the disease.

DEBATE.
