"What's really amazing," said Mr. Smith, "is that the president cut every cancer program. He cut the colorectal cancer program. He cut research at the National Cancer Institute. He cut literally every one of our cancer-specific programs. It's incomprehensible." It is very comprehensible. Cancer is God's way of telling you He doesn't like you. Trying to cure it goes against God's Will.

The cancer prevention is horrible in this country. The first mammogram my Mom ever missed in her life, was when my Dad was sick. But she went in for a "cold that kept coming back" (which is very unusual for her, I knew something was wrong, just didn't know what), and the doctor didn't bother to send her for a mammo test, even though her records would have showed she needed one. A lab slip should have automatically been generated based upon the duration since her last mammo. Ridiculous. There is absolutely no prevention in this country. As a result, my Mom is dieing now, which hurts a lot.
