The "non-profit" American Cancer Society(ACS)  holds an outrageous amount of billion dollars in money and equivalents. Why is a non-profit society holding such an enormous amount of their donations in money?

In 1995, the Wall Street Journal found that the  Arizona chapter had spent 95% of public donations on paying their personal salaries and overhead, and had falsely fabricated the amount that they spent on patient services by ten times the actual amount. In 2007, Dan Wiant of the Chicago chapter was arrested by the FBI for transferring million of donations to his personal Swiss bank account under the pretext of study grants. In 1985, Miriam Grubard, the head of the New York chapter, was indicted on tax fraud charges relating to donators receiving fraudulent tax deductions. As a national society that has no control over its numerous state chapters, I wonder how significantly of the billion in annual national donations is truthfully spent on helping defeat cancer.

On the ACS website, chemotherapy therapy is at the very top of the list followed by radiation therapy.  They state that "Mainstream cancer treatments such as radiation, chemotherapy, and surgery can be unpleasant. But they have been scientifically tested and confirmed to work for treating cancer."

But on the contrary side of that argument is Dr. Ulrich Abel.  He is a biostatitician, specializing in cancer study that completed 1 of the most exhaustive statistical studies on chemotherapy.  His conclusion of the chemotherapy study that had been performed was described by 1 word: "appalling". He stated that the faith in the effectiveness of chemotherapy could not be substantiated by science.

Take 1 much more step down this shady trail and you find AstraZeneca.  AstraZeneca is a pharmaceutical company that had cancer associated sales of billion in 2008. It was formerly owned by Imperial Chemical Industries, an international producer of industrial chemicals and carcinogenic pesticides. It has pledged million to the ACS to produce 50 cancer patient sites all through the U.S., to help  cancer patients obtain AstraZeneca cancer products.

So in summary, we have a chemical company that produced cancer causing carcinogenic chemicals, transforming itself into a multibillion dollar cancer therapy company, that is now in partnership with a non-profit cancer organization prone to fraud, to send cancer patients to jointly produced therapy facilities that sell its personal cancer products. Are you suspicious but?

"We have a multi-billion dollar industry that is killing people, right and left, just for financial gain. Their concept of study is to see whether two doses of this poison is better than 3 doses of that poison."           Glen Warner, M.D., Oncologist

There so numerous questionable ethical breeches involved here that 1 has to question what the true objective of the American Cancer Society is.  Are they guiding cancer patients to the safest and most effective treatments available or are they simply giving them the most profitable treatments with out regard to what is best for the patient?
