The Tobacco settlement with the states ($246 billion over 25 years)
went to the states, which are pissing it away on everything except
cancer research. What the petition advocates is for the Tobacco
Industry to fund *its own* carefully focused effort to find a cure for
cancer, i.e., eliminate the government middlemen. I bet that if the
Tobacco Industry spent 10 billion/year over 5 years, it would find a
cure for cancer in 5 years. They could do this by starting a Celera
like corporation.
