How "**** INDOCTRINATED" you are and don't even know it!!! The taxpayers fund most research and development of new drugs, then big pharmas get to rip the taxpayers off for big profits. Big pharmaceutical corporations have become richer than big oil since the corona virus scam.*Beekeeper » 12 Dec 2024, 5:39 am » wrote: ↑ No, that's not the case here.

If you require $2 billion to research and develop a new line of cars, then only build 5,000 of them, that $2 billion is spread over a MUCH smaller number of cars than if you build 1,500,000 of them. WHY you idiots can't seem to fathom how that same principle applies to drugs is totally a statement of how **** INDOCTRINATED you losers in life really have become.
