It’s incredible watching these conservative losers occasionally stumble into a salient point they weren’t even trying to make.

like

Right. Because a yearly vaccine vs. lifetime maintenance meds that need consistent check-ins, re-fills and monitoring are the same thing.

I don’t care what side you are on, people have got to start demanding more nuance and context for these types of blanket statements before the outrage.

Americans aren't paying for all the R&D, Americans are paying for excessive profit margins. Those some drugs are still being sold at a profit in other countries meaning the R&D costs are recouped. However, those other countries aren't allowing their citizens to get fleeced on demand inelastic drugs.

In this instance almost getting it right was a complete accident by someone who is too stupid to recognize the point she’s actually making.

Or maybe, she’s saying the vaccine is “free” for other reasons than saving lives. As in if you think politicians care about saving lives, you may have been tricked.

Free is a colloquial term for many things paid for by the government. For example, public schools, driving on highways, reading in the library, etc.

Look who wants their government handout now…

How come no one's answered the question directly?

Because not getting the covid vaccine MIGHT kill you, but you not getting it is probably just as likely if not more to kill someone else you spread it to.

Insulin and inhalers on the other hand? If you have asthma or diabetes, we don't need to inctivising it by making it free because discomfort and/or death is guaranteed if skip that one.

This kind of makes sense in an effed up way.

given the dynamic you just laid out, tho, this feels like one of those things that MAYBE pure capitalism shouldn’t be responsible for

I wouldn’t answer that question. It’s not meant for intelligent people to engage, but it does show me that she is deliberately dumbing down the dialogue on the issue.

Why is Candace so anti big pharma? Someone's gotta pay for that R&D. In a capitalist economy, government don't pay for it. Where are my libertarians at?

Did anyone look in the thread to see how many people explained it to her?

Can anyone help me wrap my head around this post Series C start-up equity offer? It’s an IP director position, the the base is $170 with 10% bonus (both lower than I was expecting). There’s also an equity component: 0.15% of current fully diluted equity. This equates to about 30000 shares at a strike price of $2. They also indicate the preferred stock price is $6 and preferred stock equity is $188k (whatever that means). They are in the middle of a new financing and valuation round.

Ok, I’m gonna say this. Schools should open. Now hear me out. My wife is a family doctor, she is working insane hours, she is treating covid patients, and there is a lot of days when she has to stay at the hospital without coming home. My neighbour works in a local grocery store, so he has been at work since the Day 1 of lockdown. So if you need medical help, or want to eat, it’s ok for those people to be at work, but their kids have to stay home? Cont’d >>
