Man can you imagine if 1 billion people end up with brain tumors. How would that even get handled? I have no idea how hard tumor surgery is but I am guessing hospitals will have to be turned into large Foxconn type factories or something.


Have you ever been to a “Foxconn type factory”? I’m not sure it’s exactly the picture you’re trying to paint.


Or at that point, they could just turn the Foxconn factories into hospitals, as I'm guessing the demand for cell phones will have plummeted.


The only positive would be the trillions of dollars that would be dedicated to brain tumour research.
