It seems folks invented a "perfect" lightbulb that never wore out. It was shelved because people would only buy one. It was not profitable.
Same for engines that use incredibly small amounts of fuel.
Think about it.
What is the profit motive in bringing a cure for CH to the table?
This is only something that makes sense for a charitable organization to do. That is why the CH Foundation was created.
What if LSD and psychoactive mushrooms are a viable treatment for CH? Could the politicos stand to see the crack in the wall built in the name of the war on drugs?
The laws of economics and politics are against finding a cure and getting it to market. Alternate procedures are required. A structure exists for this type of "orphan" project. The challenge is to establish a structure that fits the problem and work within that structure.
That is my 2 cents for today.
