Overpopulation is a bigger problem than cancer.

there was a time when people didn't kill people.

the only time of world peace was for like 300 years and it was ~3000 years ago

I think it's a terrible idea because it could put so many people out of jobs.
Who'll make all this lovely medicine and radiation research with cancer cured?
Not many.

The world's population is constantly growing.

What a load of bollocks.

There is no such thing as overpopulation.

Humans have never not killed one another.

How is there not?

1. Cure cancer.
2. Mix more paint buckets.
3. ???
4. Spread all the wealth! [Profit]

Figured I'd use your broken metaphor to stufftily adapt to mine.

"let's not cure cancer, it's just going to make everyone die if we cure it.  Actually, on that note, everyone start eating a pound of salt a day so you'll die of heart disease.  And let's make smoking cigarettes mandatory, too, because why the forget not."

you have a defeatist attitude and it's pathetic.

maybe, rather than thinking about stupid pointless stuff like this, you might want to consider solutions.  figure out how to grow more food, and better food.  think about how you would create unlimited, free energy (cold fusion).  think about perfecting government.  think about anything, anything at all, that is productive.

I would say this topic is the lamest, poorest excuse of "logic" I've ever seen on this forum.

It is infuriatingly stupid. I don't know where to start AHHH.

Actually, on that note, everyone start eating a pound of salt a day so you'll die of heart disease.

Somewhat unrelated, but while eating an entire pound of salt isn't healthy, having a good amount of salt in your diet is better than having like, two grams per day.
