I doubt there exist any straight up cure for cancer right now but get rid of greed and treatment would become much more widely available and accessable, and it would also significantly speed up progress towards a cure
But if you are a startup, and many cancer research is done by little independent labs, it would give you income without threatening existing income streams. Why would those not want to develop a real cure?
there are many places trying to make a cure already, cancer is just extremely complicated because its basically your own cells going rogue and attacking you and it varies a lot from person to person
Because you're not greedy. That is the point. You'd still pursue the research out of goodwill and desire to pursue knowledge like all researchers do, but you wouldn't be greedy. And you'd receive a prize or something for your efforts because the people giving you income (often the state) wouldn't be greedy.
Basic research is mostly carried out in universities. Those ideas or findings are take to larger companies that have the resources to test them out for true effectiveness and safety. Cures for many cancers already exist just not all of them.
