Cancer
So a new report came out saying that if you are left-handed you have an increased risk of getting cancer. Does anyone find this at all disturbing? I mean it seems as though EVERYTHING is linked to cancer. I mean if you eat too much white bread, you will get cancer....
I say we stop researching SHIT, and start researching how we get rid of it. If we spend half of the money that is given away through government grants to study these non-sensical issues, maybe we would have a solution to these problems....

"Modern Medicine" is a con game. The truth is that "cancer" is a natural byproduct of cellular regeneration and mutation as defined through natural selection. In short, if you live long enough you have a 99.9% chance of getting cancer. What we do to our bodies increases or decreases our chances of developing cancer, but no one is immune to it. This is why it seems that anything can cause cancer.
The interesting thing about disease is that much of it is influenced by cultural knowledge. On one extreme, this means that what we know affects what we do to our bodies, and on the other extreme it means that what we know literally affects our physiological health. The latter extreme is supported by the placebo effect, wherein patients show improvements in health after only taking a sugar pill, suggesting that the patient's beliefs induced an improvement in health.
It should be obvious that the stresses of our society induce physiological ailments. "Modern Medicine" is replete with chemical coping mechanisms that treat the symptoms of illness and not the nature of illness. This is why I said above that "modern medicine" is a con game. The truth is that anyone can GROW medicinal plants in their backyards and learn culturally how to prepare natural medicines without depending on pharmaceutical corporations, insurance, economic resources, or government health programs. Interestingly, humanity's ancestors possessed intimate cultural knowledge of natural medicine. Shamanism was both a religious practice as well as a medicinal practice. The shaman's use of psychotropic flora and fauna acted to treat not just the physical origins of disease, but also the cultural/mental origins of disease.
Of course, many of the plants that shamans used in their medicinal lore are now illegal. How is it that our Government can prohibit a medicinal and religious practice that extends beyond the boundaries of history?
As a consequence of The War on Drugs, a universe of cultural knowledge pertaining to natural medicine is fading into nonexistence. This is why we are experiencing the afflictions of addiction and medicinal disparity, and why we are slow to understand disease treatment.
