ITs because we all know how money corrupts. For example, theres no money in cures. But theres endless money in treatments. The only shining light, if you want to look at it like that, is that theres no money in your dying. So... theres that. But theyd still rather you died than cure you. But they will be desperate to get us all on pills and injections that we need the rest of your lives.

There is HUGE money in developing a cure for cancer. You could literally sell that for a million dollars a dose, and insurance companies would STILL be happy to pay it because it's cheaper than the alternative.
