Is breast cancer research a scam?

[CashmereThoughts]

Society seems to be obsessed with raising money to cure breast cancer. Seems to me like NFL teams shoe makers and yogurt companies are cashing in. Not to mentions the salarys payed out by these charities.

I just think it's a bunch of false hope that they will ever cure any cancer. And people are such sheep to not see that big business is using cancer for profit

Breast cancer is overstated.
It doesn't kill nearly as many people as other diseases but dominates all donations.

Diseases are always big business. Here are some excepts from the NFL article you mentioned.


The NFL touts that it's raised $3 million for the ACS since 2009, "with the majority of the donation coming from the sale of pink items at retail and on NFL Auction." How impressive that total is depends on how much the NFL is actually donating to the American Cancer Society from what they make through the sale of pink products. A recent Business Insider article stated that when B.I. asked the NFL's online shop for the precise amount, the number they got back from the league was 5%.

"If the pink products have a typical 100% mark-up at retail, that means the NFL is keeping 90% of the profit from the sale of Breast Cancer Awareness gear," author Cork Gaines wrote. "And then consider that only 70.8% of money the ACS receives goes towards research and cancer programs. So, for every $100 in sales of pink gear, only $3.54 is going towards research while the NFL is keeping approximately $45 (based on 100% mark-up)."

They got a cure for everything but they want you to pay for medication life-time to keep you sick and unlikely to fight the government and for that constant payment to the medication companies (the control companies). It's a scam like all this other shyt to 'research a cure' they already got.

If you donate to orgs like Susan G. Komen, only 20% or less will go towards actual cancer research and treatment.

My mother is a breast cancer survivor, through her treatment process, we learned that majority of breast cancer is hormone receptive, and due to estrogen dominance in your body. Estrogen dominance is becomming common issue in both men and women due to our frequent exposure to hormone disrupters (soy, birth control in the water, plastics, detergent, packaged foods) and is treatable and preventable. But no one is talking about prevention.

Cancer, of all kinds, is continuously forming in your body, but healthy cells fight it off. Cancer cannot grow in a healthy body.

Always felt so. I'll add diabetes and some STDs to that list. Billions of dollars are made from the treatment of versus the cure.
