If somebody asked you if you want to pay 700$/pill or 50 cents you would not even think LOL
I do not believe you do not care WHO finds it
yes but those billions are diluted by US bullshit, if a hip replacement in the USA costs 40.000$ and only 7000$ in spain for example and free in the 3rd world then you can imagine how far the "research money" in the USA goes  
dude you do not even produce goods in the USA any more because your country has become such a rip off, why on earth do you think the USA is a good place to do research I do not know  
it is simply not cost effective to do anything in the USA, I am not arguing that the investors will not make a killing, I am arguing that from the perspective of normal people, its better for everybody if a cure for cancer is not invented in the USA
now you either have something to show for the trillions, not billions like you say, that has been invested in medical research in the USA and you can list some major cures the USA has found in the last 50 years, or I am completely right and you are wrong LOL

You right, it's not cost effective to do anything in the USA.
A few years ago my mother needed a rather simple, common, operation. It would have cost her $20k here in the US, but instead she flew out of the country, paid half, got a vacation out of it, and her recovery room over looked the ocean.
