    In most countries 18 year old are adults. I think it is everywhere in Europe (where I live). If you are 18, you have the same rights and duties as any other citizen. Adults should be able to choose their partner independent of race, gender and also age. How can you support same sex marriage but be against marriage of a couple with a difference in age?

    I don’t know, many societies don’t want to discuss how much worth is one additional year of life for example. I also don’t know if it would improve output if research and development and manufacturing of drugs would be completely state run. But the I think the ruling elites are almost all patients in one form or the other. Have you ever seen a completely healthy elderly politician? If it only taking pills against high blood pressure, or high cholesterol. Or maybe they have a new hip or knee joint.

    Nope, while telomers and general aging are important. It has nothing or little to do with most diseases. You say the people making decision are not cancer patients. That is not really true. 20 % of the population die of cancer. 1/5 of the pharma management dies of cancer, 1/5 of the spouses of these people die of cancer. 1/5 of the children of these people die of cancer. It is in the direct egoistic interest of these people to find cancer cures.

    Yeah this is just utter bullshit. My prove are cures like Sovaldi/ Harmony, Zolgensma, Hemgenix and many more which will come in future. You can complain that these treatments are ridiculously overpriced. But obviously as a company you take the 1-2 million Dollar now instead of some unknown revenue in the decades ahead.
