Can money cure AIDS?

 

The year was 1991 and that November, Magic Johnson announced to the world, that he would be retiring from the L.A. Lakers, due to the fact that he had contracted the HIV virus. Now, 23 years later, doctors claim that Magic Johnson has only a trace of the virus in his system. Can he be cured? How can it be? If he was a man from my hometown, just a regular guy like me, he would have been dead and buried 20 years ago, if not 23! What separates him from a regular guy? His fame and fortune. Being able to "hire" the best doctors in the world and pay for all of the medications that the regular guy could never afford, has kept him alive and could have possibly cured him. The same goes for any disease. Can we find a cure for AIDS? Can we find a cure for Cancer? Can we even cure the common cold? The answer is YES!

Have you ever seen any of those powerful disinfecting cleaners, or hand sanitizers on the market? Some of them state on the bottle, that they will kill the cold and flu virus and even the HIV virus! So, we can make a cleaner to kill HIV, but we can't make a medication to kill it. With all of the technological advancements in the medical industry today, we CAN find a cure. We can save the lives of men, women and children suffering and dying every day with these deadly diseases. So, why are we not. The answer is simple. MONEY.

Our televisions are polluted with advertisements for prescription drugs. They even say, "ask your doctor about" so and so medication. The prescription drug industry is big business and without sick people, they would be out of business. The powers that be will never let that happen. They are getting huge kick backs from these companies. They WANT people to be sick. They even CAUSE people to be sick. If the medical industry came up with a cure for the common cold, all of the cold medications on the market wouldn't be needed anymore. They won't let that happen. If they revealed the cure for cancer, all of the people paying thousands and thousands and millions and millions of dollars for medications and treatments wouldn't need them anymore. They can find a cure for anything. The technology we possess today, can solve any problem. Have they already found a cure for cancer? Do they have a cure for AIDS? 23 years is a long time, when you are supposed to have been given a death sentence. Can money be the cure?
