    False fear.

    People are already getting desperately sick, there is no need for the drug companies to make people ill to increase profits. And speaking of profits; BigPharma profits are not larger than any other profit in the same location. It's big in absolute numbers, but that's because the industry is large, not because the profit percentage is big.

    Alternative health practitioners, on the other hand, do create "diseases" which they can then sell people expensive wooden blocks to "cure". Having "a low aether", for example, is a perfect example of a condition designed specifically to take money from people.
    Still maintain that crying on the pitch should warrant a 3 match ban
