There’s more profit in causing and treating cancer than curing it. Can’t weaken those revenue streams just so some poor people can go on living. If they were worth saving then they wouldn’t have been born better.

Or it was too cheap to duplicate so there was no profit in it…

Dead people make short term profit. Alive people make long term profit.

Even when we find a single drug that effortlessly cures every type of cancer and costs $1 to peoduce it will be patented by some giant company and sold to highest bidders.

Cheap to duplicate is great for them. That means larger profit margins.
