Imagine the amount of overpopulation we'd be having all around the world (it's already steadly increasing). Imagine all the fundraisers that make people feel good about helping their community that would be lost. Call it self preservation, germ warfare, it matters not what you call it, this society needs these diseases.
Can you name me any billionaires who've died of cancer/aids? I'm just curious see. Respect.

...not that many people know the names of most billionaires, but how did Howard Hughes die? Jackie Kennedy, Walt Disney, George Harrison, Frank Zappa, Vince Lombardi, Sammy Davis Jr., all cancer victims, not all billionaires, but do you understand how small the list of actual billionaires is? Nevermind how they died... your point of view only conceeds to the higher powers who would hold secrets back... think of all the money that could go towards other problems if the cure were found, I'm sure the people on the front lines would gladly find the cure and move on to another task... greed is the real problem... just my quick take... I am definitely NOT an expert...
