Way back when I first started investing in CTIX for K, one of my co-workers' opinions was that it was a very foolish investment. It was foolish not because of the risk of failure, but foolish in that if K worked and turned into the miracle drug we all hope it will be, there would be large entities (Big Pharma) who would see K as a threat to their bottom line and would squash it and CTIX from existence. Much like your examples here, it is all based on money. If K cures cancer then all of a sudden there is less money to be made in treating the disease. I am always skeptical of big entity / shadow organization conspiracy theories, but I still wonder if IPIX has been and continues to be victim to a situation like that.
