It does not say "companies should not bother with curing Hep C like illnesses since there's no money in it."

Critical reading skills and leaving out strawmen/non-existent arguments like "there's no money in it" are required.


What exactly about my statement was a non-existent argument?

The title is "Is curing patients a sustainable business model?" A non-sustainable business model cannot sustain a business by definition, therefore there is no money in it.


I've personally seen casino multi game slots that have had either options built in to them via admin panels or grievous enough software issues that mis-wired multi use buttons could allow a player to either lose horribly or continually win/compound upon wins. The coin or credit in/out stat counters would also be affected and be pretty much worthless. These issues just throw ANY concept of magic "odds" chips right out the window.

They're not regulated that closely at all.
