If you had the cure for Aids would you tell others or profit?

Please keep in mind people die everyday of far more common things. Irrational emotional comments are not constructive or appropriate.

I personally wouldn't try to profit -but that is exactly what the pharmaceutical companies do everyday....

I would definatly tell people, that would be a horrible thing to know and not do anything about it. I am sure the first person to announce the cure for AIDS will get a huge profit.

I'd get a patten and do both

tell...tell...thats fu*ked up to profit off it

Both

i would tell others but i wouldnt let fags have it :) sorry if i offended you deal with it!

I would tell others so I could profit

sure would

yes I would cause there are folks who need a cure ..

that is a stupid question because either way there is going to be a profit of of it, and you might as well get it instead of tell your friend and them getting the money

If you had ever watched a single person die you would do the humanitarian thing.

Profit, and tell others. What's wrong with making money for something that is good for mankind.

I would tell everyone about it but wouldn't devulge my secret to anyone for fear someone would try to profit....you know how that is....

I'd disclose the information.

But that moral disposition is also why I'm poor now, and partly why I'm also on this Q&A board...

id tell others, i'd prefer to save lives than have ppl die b/c of greed, that's wrong! i wouldnt even want to profit ($) from that (saving lives is the gain) =)

free to all!!!

Why would I have to choose.? I would profit by telling others.

I would probably try to at least recover whatever I'd invested in developing the cure. A reasonable profit wouldn't be a bad thing.

I would certainly try to get the word out and I wouldn't try to get filthy rich from it.

I'd do both. I'd make the cure cheaper than water. But I'd patent it first.

Patent it first. Then tell others. So someone else cant profit

aids is a disease that is killing millions. to not tell others would be a crime. a cure for aids would be the best thing that could happen

I'd tell, All the media attention will bring cash and I'd save lives

i would of course tell people but I woudl also profit off it...you dont hv to charge HELLABUCKS to profit, there are wnought cases of AIDS out there that you could provide treatment at an affordable rate & still make yourself financially comfortable for the rest of your life...and honestly like the person above said if you dont make monsy on it someone else will & they might not be so generous to do it affordably for the public

of course profit..
when you're swimming in money..
you can save anyone you want

tell others ,but in all honesty i would make a profit.10 dollars but i would donate large amounts to afraca for free tax write off

Tell others for to do otherwise would be pure evil.

I would give it to everyone in the whole entire world and guarantee anyone who needs it will get it.

this question is a good one.. i mean if i say id tell everyone.. i sound like a goody good thats only trying to please everyone.. and if i say profit from it.. im a money hungry cow that only thinks of myself.. so.. there is no cool answer..

heres my real answer.. i would profit from it.. but only like $2 per person that has it.. coz think of all the people that have it in the world.. and you could help everyone without being too greedy..

I would charge enough to cover making it, but not people who couldn't afford it. So many people with Aids have no jobs and no family. So, I'd probably end up giving a lot away. But after I copyrighted it so rich drug companies can't make millions on it.

For profit of course

I would tell everyone and definitely get it put through the pharmacuetical industry, not because I want the profit, but because they can produce it in the mass quantities that are needed. I wouldn't even want the recognition. I'd be happy with the knowledge that I had saved millions of lives world wide.
