In this thought-provoking clip of Black Out with Ian & Rashad, our host Rashad Bilal tackles a controversial and unsettling topic: the economics of healthcare, particularly around the treatment for cancer. Rashad delves into the possibility that there might already be technology capable of curing cancer, but raising the critical question: "If they have technology that can cure cancer, hypothetically speaking, why would they not make that readily available?"
Our candid host shares a personal story about his grandmother's battle with cancer and the immense costs associated with her treatments. Over a span of just three months, her treatments totaled an astronomical $100,000. Rashad ponders the disheartening reality that many pharmaceutical companies might prioritize their profit margins over the well-being of patients. He poses a stark comparison: Would the industry opt to charge exorbitant fees for ongoing treatments rather than provide a one-time solution?
Join Rashad as he opens up a discussion that many might find unsettling. This episode is an eye-opener, prompting us to reflect on the moral implications behind the business of healthcare. Are we, as a society, complicit in perpetuating a system that values profit over human life? Or is there a way to advocate for a healthier, fairer world where life-saving technologies are accessible to all?
