This is only, somewhat true. For example, medical technology seems to be less advanced since it's been "for profit" well not less advanced but the findings are less. We're finding less and less cures, and instead finding treatments... because treatments are far more profitable... and it's easy to make the rationale to the public because they can always use the excuse that cures are harder to find, and that treatments will be done sooner and can help the people who have the disease now. (at a tidy profit) It's hard to argue that when people will spin it that you want current people to die in pain, when in reality you just want to cure things so people don't have to deal with the disease anymore. Furthermore people still claim their scientific and medical theroes are relvant when they've been proven wrong because otherwise they will lose their funding and money. Thus wasting resources and their intellect trying to prove scientific theroes that are long defunct because they are afraid they will be out of a job it they don't, which can even lead to intelectual dishonesty in the altering a figures and results. Scientific and Medical advances were better off in my opinion when they were a combination of state funded and driven by rich hobbists who were into science because they loved it and didn't have to worry about their funding getting pulled and could switch their ideas with their results. At least in the fields of Medicine and low profit scinces like quantum physics. |
I'm sorry, but your theory is bull. It's cute that you actually believe that a cure could exist for something, but there isn't. There are only treatments and if there actually was a cure for even anything as much as the common cold, it could have teh potential to doom the human race.
People are designed to have their own immune system. Just like how we have muscles in our body for preforming tasks. In order to be able to do a lot with out muscles, we have to train our muscles by having them do work. As we work our strength and control increases. Have you ever seen a martial artist, athlete or anybody in a physically demanding field that improved their strength and skills by having someone else do the work for them?
If a cure is developed for anything, we will depend on that, our immune systems will fall into disuse, some uncontrollable factor will change in the common cold and teh "cure" will be useless and no one on earth will have an immune system strong enough to deal with it.
