Choking on the pink ribbons yet????  email this discussion to a friend?

Well, it's October and we are swamped in pink ribbons for breast cancer awareness again. Am I the only one who is tired of the blatant commercialization of this terrible disease. We are so long past the need for breast cancer AWARENESS. We are now in the era of breast cancer ACCOUNTABILITY. I first became aware of breast cancer when I was a teenager. I am now in my sixties and women are still dying from this disease AND we still are not certain of the causes,etc. Just what have they done with all the money that has been donated to this cause? Not much bang for the buck, I say.

Wow thats a powerful statement Bev, you should like write an editorial or something XD and thats a good question.... we might not have found the cause, but we have found a few tricks that can help get rid of it for some people :) still would like more progress though

But heres a question maybe you can answer for me, where does the money go for all the pink ribbons and things people buy? research or promoting more awareness or what?

Well heres another questions for ya, A long time ago, Not nearly as many people got cancer, something changed so that more people get it, What do you think happened? why do people suddenly get cancer more than people in general use to?


myLot reputation of 74/100. Bevsue (229)   ranked 283 out of 5,520 in shopping  4 years ago

Lots of different reasons. For one thing more people died of infections, pneumonia, influenza, that kind of thing and didn't live long enough to develop cancer and heart diseases. And, of course, we have to think about all the pollutants and chemicals and changes in the way we eat and the lack of physical activity, etc.

First off I give my sympathy to all who suffer from this terrible disease as well as those who have loved ones suffering from it. The manufacturer of these products makes a limited number of items for the AWARENESS program and donates a portion of $ to each item sold to the program so this is good. I had a friend that said she believes there really is a cure it has just not been announced due to the fact that all this money is still being made. How sad if that is true. What do you think?

Unfortunately, I know that a lot of people are making money from the cancer 'industry' and that we are not good stewards of the huge amounts of money that has been and continues to be donated by the public.

I definately believe that, there are too many cases of pharmacies not researching real cures because no money, like you cant patent a plant so nobody looks at the natural resources like herbs as cures, litterally. theres just no money in it... so its just "Alternative healing" because noone will research what is actually behind it.

I like the yoplay comercials where they say they will donate 10 cents for every pink lid sent in. Whats funny about that comercial is that they were doing the same offer ten years ago, you would think by now it would be at least 12 or 15 cents. It dose seem like the succes rate is far greater now then it used to be but your right a cure still hasn't been found. I may be several years still before they do.
