Is the Komen Foundation Running for a Cure or for Themselves?
by Tony Isaacs
(The Best Years in Life) Each year sees more and more widely publicized "Race for the Cure" and other breast cancer events staged by the Komen Foundation. In 2013 over 100 such events have been scheduled. As this $400 million per year giant pink gorilla of cancer charities continues to grow, the question that begs answering is: "Is the Komen Foundation really running (or walking) for a cure for breast cancer or are they instead running mostly to keep their foundation going and the money flowing in?"
After all, one would think that any serious effort to find a cure for breast cancer or just about any other forms of cancers would center on the role of toxins, which are increasingly recognized as far and away the major cause of cancer. Yet, in the Komen Foundation's lengthy list of risk factors, nary a mention is made of risks posed by exposure to toxins. Read More.
As is true in many of the cancer foundations and events, there are some good quality companies involved and no end of good people - thousands of people - who have only the best of intentions. However, the sad truth is that the cancer-causers and cancer-profiteers have flocked to those organizations and have essentially hijacked them in many ways to help hide their culpability and increase their profits.
I find it so shameful and disconcerting to see the good-intentioned efforts of so many people misdirected by organizations which steer public attention and research funds away from the true culprits of cancer - namely toxins - and towards the same old genetic research and the same tried and failed mainstream treatments which try to cut out, poison out or burn out the mere symptoms of cancer without addressing the root causes and without effecting a lasting cure. And only give lip service to prevention - which is, after all, the best way to beat cancer.

When profits come up against healing and humanity it is clear who wins and who loses. Greed, after all, is the very deadliest of all sins.
