sounds like you had this: https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/barretts-esophagus/diagnosis-treatment/drc-20352846. Your distrust of the med system could result in esophageal cancer. there are unethical docs. They are a small minority like the guy in Houston you championed. They are even more rare in academia because they choose to work in a setting where the pay is generally lower. Go see a doc at an academic center for a 2nd opinion on your cancer cells (Roswell?). I'll bet my house he'll tell you the same thing. Neither will benefit in any way from you taking the drug except that they'll feel better about your prognosis. What you MAGAs need to understand in all things but especially medicine is the risk/benefit concept. If the potential benefit far outweighs the risk, the intervention is very likely; worth doing. Vaccines are another great example. Re the Houston quack: If it seems too good to be true, it likely is too good to be true. These scumbags prey on desperate people with conditions that are incurable with traditional medicine. They pretend to have some knowledge (gnosis) that no one else has. They don't. Kind of like when you're cold called with an investment opportunity that is only available for a limited time from this particular broker...

See the bolded part? but it's complicated. You wouldn't understand. try to connect some dots. let me know your thoughts. https://www.aljazeera.com/features/2023/6/2/a-russian-love-affair-why-south-africa-stays-neutral-on-war

Musk is happy. Putin's happy.

it's about being anti establishment, implying to me that they haven't done well in the existing establishment structure. but trump is going to fix that for them...let's do a "how much better off" topic in about a year and see.

this charlatan isn't Sackler level dirty money but he's in their league for sleaze. Citing examples of problems with 29 patients, which were listed in the document, the board said that "unapproved combinations of highly toxic chemotherapy" were prescribed "in ways that caused harm to several patients."[60] In July 2015, Burzynski's counsel, Richard Jaffe, withdrew from the case citing a potential conflict of interest,[61] a result of Jaffe's pursuing actions against Burzynski in bankruptcy court.[62 He claimed he was owed $250,000 in legal fees. why do you guys fall for this shite? Guys like this are trying to cheat you and everyone they can....and you admire them. It's weird. Here's an idea. If you go to Houston for cancer care, check out MD Anderson. How'd that diploma from trump U work out for you?

this guy is a peach. you really have a thing for con men. there's much more deplorable stuff on him. In 2010, Eric Merola, an art director of television commercials, released a film titled Burzynski: Cancer is Serious Business, that promotes the Clinic's claims and describes Burzynski's use of antineoplastons and his legal clashes with government agencies and regulators.[97] In March 2013, Merola released a follow-up movie to Cancer is Serious Business.[citation needed] The Village Voice commented that the first movie "violates every basic rule of ethical filmmaking" and that by interviewing only Burzynski's supporters, the film's producer "is either unusually credulous, or doesn't understand the difference between a documentary and an advertisement".[98] Variety described the film as having the qualities of a "paranoid conspiracy theory" and likened it to the National Enquirer, adding that the film's explanatory diagrams are "simplistic to the point of idiocy". The Variety review concluded that "despite its infotainment look, Burzynski ultimately proves convincing."[99] In April 2013, Burzynski received the Pigasus Award, which is bestowed each April Fool's Day by the James Randi Educational Foundation (JREF) to "honor the five worst offenders who are intentionally or unintentionally peddling harmful paranormal and pseudoscientific nonsense."[100] The Foundation cited as the basis for the award the high cost of antineoplaston treatments, the lack of controlled trials demonstrating efficacy, the lack of FDA approval on the treatments, the lack of published final results of any single clinical trial, and the existence of FDA warning letters concerning research method safety and possible rules violations impacting patient safety. In June 2013, the BBC's Panorama explored Burzynski in a documentary titled Curing cancer or 'selling hope' to the vulnerable? and argued "Burzynski exploits a legal loophole" by treating patients with antineoplastons "as part of a clinical trial, so the drug does not need a licence" for twenty years.[101][102] The clinic complained to the Office of Communications(Ofcom) about the documentary, but the complaint was not upheld.[103] In November 2013, an investigative report in USA Today by Liz Szabo accused Burzynski of selling "false hope to families" for years.[32] In an interview with Reporting on Health, Szabo said that her interest in reporting on Burzynski was sparked when she emailed him with questions asking for a response to a book critical of him, and received a legal warning letter from his attorneys in reply.[104] In August 2015, Burzynski was listed by the Houston Press as number 8 on a list of The 10 Most Embarrassing Houstonians accusing him of being "Truly an embarrassment to such a medical city where some of the best cancer medicine in the world is performed."[105]

laughter is good for the soul. but this is getting boring.

so I'm imagining that you're reading and answering my posts? We must be in parallel realities. Yeah, that's it. It's alternate truth.

No, the vast majority of medical researchers and clinicians go into the field because they want fulfillment. there are much easier ways to make money. Academics are comparatively poorly paid and anonymous outside academia. What you're proposing is a massive conspiracy involving millions of scientists on a global level. It's ridiculous. Now go look up the income of Dr Miracle that you referenced. I'm sure he and his family are doing much better than average. btw, the AMA is not powerful anymore. I believe less than /3 of docs are members. I'm not and haven't been since I was given a free membership in med school.

there you go again. for not being worth the time, you're spending a bit insulting me. ad hominem is one of the easiest fallacies to rebut. but debate isn't your thing. You seem joyful to me. whatever you're doing, keep it up. Happiness is winning!

Then don't spend time responding. once again, you are incorrect on everything written.

Nope. DOGE is bad partly because it's overseen by an unelected billionaire who is one of the largest contractors for our govt. I can't think of greater conflict of interests. But I'm glad you're pleased with the admins priorities being removed from what trump campaigned on. You know, the kitchen table issue. How do you see him making your own life better? Is cutting off foreign aid going to help you directly? Can you get a nicer car, more vacations, a bigger house and better food? Will he bring about miracle cures and scientific discoveries that will improve everyone's life? How much do you think Musk is going to save in the end given that entitlements, interest on the debt and the military are massively overweighted in the budget? And why didn't trump do this in his first term instead of adding massively to the debt?

yes, because magas rarely criticized our party when you lost. Y'all loved Obama's 2 terms.

Free speech! Free speech! Stop cancel culture! Patriotism!

I understand the desperation for a cure. it leads to magical thinking. I'll watch the 1st 3 minutes if you read this: Although Burzynski and his associates claim success in the use of antineoplaston combinations for the treatment of various diseases, and some of the clinic's patients say they have been helped,[33] there is no clinical evidence of the efficacy of these methods. The consensus among the professional community, as represented by the American Cancer Society[33] and Cancer Research UK[34] is that antineoplaston therapy is unproven, and the overall probability of the treatment turning out to be as claimed is low due to lack of credible mechanisms and the poor state of research after more than 35 years of investigation. Antineoplaston treatments have significant known side effects including severe neurotoxicity. Hypernatremia is also a significant risk given the high levels of sodium in antineoplaston infusions.[29][35][32] Independent scientists have been unable to reproduce the positive results reported in Burzynski's studies: NCI observed that researchers other than Burzynski and his associates have not been successful in duplicating his results,[29] and Cancer Research UK states that "available scientific evidence does not support claims that antineoplaston therapy is effective in treating or preventing cancer."[34] There is no convincing evidence from randomized controlled trials in the scientific literature that antineoplastons are useful treatments of cancer, and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not approved these products for the treatment of any disease.[36] The American Cancer Society has stated since 1983 that there is no evidence that antineoplastons have any beneficial effects on cancer and recommended that people not buy these products since there could be serious health consequences.[33][37] A 2004 medical review described antineoplaston treatment as a "disproven therapy".[12] In 1998, three oncologists were enlisted by the weekly Washington newsletter The Cancer Letter to conduct independent reviews of Burzynski's clinical trial research on antineoplastons. They concluded that the studies were poorly designed, not interpretable, and "so flawed that it cannot be determined whether it really works". One of them characterized the research as "scientific nonsense".[38] In addition to questioning Burzynski's research methods, the oncologists found significant and possibly life-threatening toxicity in some patients treated with antineoplastons.[39] There is no conspiracy within the medical community to suppress treatments for largely incurable diseases.

You have a preconceived vision. let's talk about how you envisioned yourself as a young man. Are you there? I'm guessing not or you wouldn't be so whiny, resentful and vengeful. those are borne from anger and frustration.

I don't think anyone but you would characterize this as whining or victim speak: "my "sort" will be fine regardless." As a younger man, I pictured early retirement in comfort.

the big thing that you seem to forget is your failure at communicating through writing. did you see this part? likely did and don't care.

and the battles continue: https://www.wsj.com/us-news/law/federal-judge-blocks-elon-musks-doge-from-treasury-system-e0f1e55c my "sort" will be fine regardless. the opposite of most maga's

you fascists have won a battle. the war continues even from trump appointed judges. there's still hope to restore decency as the standard. https://www.cnbc.com/2025/02/07/trump-usaid-staff-leave-pause.html

Isn't freeing convicted seditionists and insurrectionists enough "grace". Yale didn't remove the white trash from JD.

USAID is going to be down to 600 employees from 10,000. The state dept is also cutting personnel: https://www.notus.org/whitehouse/state-department-contractors-fired. So where are the people coming from to administer rice bowl diplomacy that you and rubio ostensibly support? Resist. We've swapped roles. Only difference is that I've stayed on the moral side.

Let’s start with Africa. S Africa especially. Hmmm, what ties does DOGE have to S Africa? https://www.cfr.org/backgrounder/russias-growing-footprint-africa
