Then again I would think the first company out with a cure to a big disease would make alot of bucks for awhile and their stock price would sky rocket which is very important in ways most people don't usually get.

Another point here is people have seen time and time again how shortsighted corporate thinking is and often complain about the stupidity of it, so why would one assume they are suddenly patient and not shortsighted when it comes to cure vs. treatment?
