How bout a war on Cancer? Imagine what our scientist could do with some of the money we spend on the wars. More of us had family and friend killed by Cancer than all the world wars and criminal actions combined in a year.

We got our priorities screwed up...

They'd rather profit from repeated treatments than give people a chance to live a happy and healthy life. It's all about profit imo.

In the US alone, an estimated 225k per year die of pharmaceutical overdosing, mis-dosing or side effects.

Hate to break it to you but we all have cancer, we just dont know it yet. Cancer is just mutation gone out of controll, our man made environment is toxic to us so we develop various cancers in our lives. The rates of terminal cancer are rising exponentially, meaning its just a matter of time before the human race is considered a terminally ill cancerous one.

The good news, however, is that confirmed terrorists we've killed is over 100,000.

I call that a good years work.

Even drunk driving brings in more deaths....and certainly accidents with fatalities. I just had this convo the other day saying imagine if they spent all that money on healthcare or better infrastructure. More people died from car accidents than the 9/11 attacks and the entire 2 wars after probably by about 10 fold if not more.

The best part is this...when america does fail at stopping a terrorist attack boy o boy are they gonna have some explaining to do....after all that investment into security and a failure....hate to be the guy in charge when that happens.

cancer isn't just a *Disease* It's just a generic statement given when corrupted cells begin multiplying. The cause is Radiation and pathogens.

There isn't one single pathogen we can point to and say * All cancer comes from this critter* And there isn't one protein or chromosom we can point to that would be causeing these problems because cancer is just an effect of a problem or cause. Cancer is a symptom of something worse. Which causes cancer. There are probably 100 or more types of cancer out there. Probably 1 million ways to get cancer.

There are also 1 million ways to be a terrorist. Probably more as anything can be imagined.
But what one person defines as Terrorism, Is military expansion to another.
Likewise. Who are targeted as terrorist in those statistics? Are all deaths accounted for by all recorded combatants?
Military, Rebel, Gang(group-Mob oriented) as percentages in those statistics?

The numbers look all good and well but when we talk about how many people are murdered by other people per year. It Dwarfs anything we can pool together because a huge majority isn't pooled together. Say for instance. Murder per capita is not the statistic on how many people are killed. Murder is not the same as killing someone. Murder is illegal killing.
So Legal killing is not accounted with the records. Because it would paint an ugly picture.
