Cancer Cure

[rocket377]

I know several people affected by cancer. One died on Xmas day. Following this depressing event, I got into a discussion with a mate of mine who has had skin cancer and recovered from it (thankfully) about the cures and whether there would ever be a 'total' cure. The following, somewhat skeptical approach to cures was offered:

'A cure for all types of known cancer has been found but is being with held from general release because it would eliminate part of the 'natural selection' element of the human race. If everyone who was diagnosed with cancer was cured, more people would live longer thus exponentially increasing the drain on resources'

Interested to hear PH views.
