Goldman Sachs: Curing Patients' Illnesses Is Bad for Business

As CNBC originally reported, Goldman Sachs published a report on April 10 called “The Genome Revolution,” which evaluated the question, “Is curing patients a sustainable business model?” Analyst Salveen Richter explained that new forms of long-term cures involving gene therapy may be good for humanity, but bad for capitalism.

“The potential to deliver “one shot cures” is one of the most attractive aspects of gene therapy, genetically engineered cell therapy, and gene editing. However, such treatments offer a very different outlook with regard to recurring revenue versus chronic therapies,” Richter wrote. “While this proposition carries tremendous value for patients and society, it could represent a challenge for genome medicine developers looking for sustained cash flow.”

This was telling only half the story, then turned it towards your agenda. The original story had three solutions in it. I’m sure if you thought for yourself you could think of one.

Let’s start a co op....that will fix it.

when you consider how much rents / property prices have risen adj for inflation the middle class is dead.

wrong city.

toronto has high rents and property. im not sure about vacancy rates. so im not really sure how you did that.

It's good to have a job

it can also suck too, as in the case of UPS

Or they could do like Hispanics do in the very expensive area in which I live, share a house. Townhouse across from me where I once lived had 20 Mexicans living in it.

thats probably why they dont wanna do that. but like i said there is a low vacancy rate, and they probably want to save money.

my buddy shares a house. he barely got one. i think he pays $1000 a month and hes got a view and a private bathroom.
