3. Yup. The quacks prey on fearful people, and few things

create more fear than a cancer diagnosis. Quacks don't care. They know that you'll pay for their advice and buy their water. They know you'll die, too, but they count on an endless stream of fearful cancer patients to keep them busy and making money.

Homeopathetic quacks are completely mercenary, and have no compassion for the victims of their fraud. They know their water doesn't do anything, but they don't give a damn about that. As long as you're willing to pay for it, they'll do whatever it takes to keep you buying. They are selling nothing at all and duping people into thinking they are getting something of value. Con-men and sociopaths, every last one of them.
