re: #99 Dreggas

we used to cure things, now we just treat them. It’s more profitable that way.

This isn’t actually true, in either case. We didn’t use to cure things more than we do now— we have a lot of cures that weren’t previously available. And why we tend towards palliative is a much larger discussion, involving insurance and the way that pharma research operates.
