Inherited Cancer

Since there is no such thing as inherited cancer, the article should have read "for those genetically predisposed towards cancer". Current studies indicate everyone has cancer, but most people never experience adverse effects from it because their immune systems do not allow it to propagate.

If you have a single anaerobic cell in your body, you have cancer, but most of us have immune systems that seek out and destroy such cells before they reproduce.

Prior to WWII, cancer was a rarity, and prior to the 1940s, was even cured by several different methods made illegal by the AMA/FDA consortium.

It doesn't take much research to figure out what changed from 1940 to 1980 that caused the government to declare a "War" on cancer that has spent billions and accomplished little.

Fix the conditions causing the cancers, you have won the war. Fight the cancers with drugs, you lose the war.
