It's because of patent law that healthcare is so expensive. Drug companies and medical equipment manufacturers use the state as a cudgel to strengthen their monopoly, exploit the vulnerable, and extract wealth.
Then people are convinced to make excuses for billion dollar corporations, oh no, they won't innovate, there won't be new drugs, how will they recoup costs?
And I'm here like, we can't just separate R&D from manufacture? Trade associations are a thing. The industry could pool resources to maximize value. It's not like demand for new drugs is going away.
Anyway. That's the kind of thing that runs though my head when I see drug advertisements. It's silly, this whole system is super silly. I feel like I'm taking supersillium.
