There has been a rumor in one form or another for decades that scientists found a cure for cancer, but it has been suppressed because of the financial impact it would have on drug companies and on scientific research. My argument is: what researcher would agree to keep this a secret? And wouldn't everyone else in on the research have to be dead to keep that secret?
