Of course I know this. But it doesn’t change what the vast majority of Americans believe. That’s why I’ve always laughed at your methods of trying to change people’s opinions (insults and affiliate links).
They’re not. They just aren’t smart enough to distinguish the difference in the voting booth.
Of course you can call for it to be changed. But treating anyone that isn’t upset by the status quo like shit isn’t a good way to accomplish that.
Yes, it is spending that mostly benefits corporations. I suppose you’re okay with it?Big difference on who the spending is for. While “leaders” of industry will often complain about Welfare it doesn’t bother them to take corporate welfare as it benefits them. Hypocritical much?
Probably, but I don’t support corporate subsidies, but I also understand that that’s part of the reason we can’t compete with India/China in manufacturing. You, of course, don’t understand a word of that last sentence.
So why do you think they lobbied against it’s legalization? I forgot you don’t care. You’d do well to think about your answer and recognize the monopolistic behavior of this industry.
Yes of course I’m a moron because I follow the evidence from countries all over the world that shows single-payer is less expensive often with better results. I know that results don’t matter to you. It’s your ideology that counts. You show it all the time.
We don’t compete with them in regards to a lot of things, like their much cheaper labor. So now the upper level management and the shareholders can have more. Greed is a terrible thing. Jobs aren’t being shipped over so the corporation can survive. It is sheer greed of those who already have more than enough.
You don’t follow the evidence. You follow your cherrypicked “evidence” which is usually a blogger, someone with an agenda (pnhp), or limited customer surveys. Strong evidence of the effectiveness and cost of single-payer…
@pfury took your own “evidence” and pointed out how Single-payer will cost more in absolute terms. Somehow that makes it less expensive in your, uh… space where your brain goes.
I’ve literally been saying, for years, I want clinically tested results showing the efficacy of treatments so consumers aren’t sold garbage by Pharmaceutical companies and/or snake oil salesmen like the guys you love.
Are you talking about yourself here?
You really haven’t the slightest idea what you’re talking about. Like, do you even know what COGS is? How it works? What it’s made up of? Do you understand how capital projects work? Why companies pick project A over B? How corporate (those ol plain corps) taxes work? How payroll taxes work? How benefits are calculated? So on and so forth.
No. You obviously don’t. You haven’t the slightest clue how any of this whole business thing works, which is why you continue to paste that ridiculous talking point about greed.
Hey boys and girls, the douchebag whisperer has spoken again. If the pharma industry would have gotten it’s way, choice for the public would be limited and suffering would have ensued. But he doesn’t care. He can’t, he’d rather close his eyes, cover his ears and put his head in the sand than to admit the monopoly practices of this industry. Better the public would suffer than profits of the industry to take a hit.
