(#najbypq) @thecanine Yeah I agree with your viewpoint there 👌

(#najbypq) @fastidious Yeah that tends to be how capitalism is, but I'm not sure I like it in this context, exactly. Obviously things like vaccines need plenty of funding, but driving up costs and treating it like any other 'product' to make absolute bank seems like a kinda dick move and as @prologic says, will just trickle down as increased taxes etc. I don't know what the answer is. It's always the same problem with these big corporations - it's like thermal runaway, but with money.

(#najbypq) > Yeah the main point is how these vaccine companies try and maximize their profits and put up roadblocks until they get what they want Yeah this is what I have a problem with basically. What about the suffering people? Can't we put the health, safety and longevity of our species and planet first over questionable sums of something called "an economy"? 🤔

(#najbypq) What is that saying… Nothing in life is free? 🤔 I guess some things really __ought__ to be.
