Rockefeller wouldn’t have gotten away with “breaking up” his oil monopoly if he ran all the new businesses

I could just own majority share

Then you are owner

That would not be allowed

^

Why?

If I am the best person for the job.

And they are different business

Monopolies shouldn’t be allowed lol

Anti-monopoly laws should apply to people to avoid loopholes like this

@bolivarian_robert State-Owned Monopoly <:luv:591451841045463041>

Good @Maksim

Based and redpilled

That’s really stupid

Just because you see them as different entities doesn't mean the state does

Because the state will be 100x worse

On the contrary

Cuba has the best healthcare in the Americas

It seems to be working for them

I highly doubt that

They have a lung cancer vaccine @Deleted User

Most likely what I will see as a single entity the state will see as different entities

One vaccine does not make them the best

It’s a damn good vaccine

Everyone wants Cuban doctors, especially in South America

They are among the worlds best doctors

@Attika Explain why epi pens cost 100x in the U.S than what they do anywhere else

Same product

I don't disagree, but just because they possess one allegedly doesn't make them the best

That was a single example lol

They have some of the best doctors in the world

@Maksim are you talking supply and demand?

By what metric?

@Attika yes

Supply and Demand is not universal

If America has a high demand of Epi pens and low demand. Price will be higher and will stay high until the price works its way down by competing corporations

Far from it

@Attika wrong

The price of epi pens does not match supply

The price will always...ALWAYS match its demand

Medical companies in the US destroy supplies in order to raise prices on purpose

Companies have been taken to class-action lawsuits for unfair pricing

These cases are still ongoing

^

Epi pens are also a copyrighted product.

The medicine or the delivery device?

They should be allowed to put whatever price they want on it.

Nah, they should be nationalized

^

No.

Anything where it is a matter of life and death

Should not be in private hands

Epi pens.

Life and death?

Yes that's what they do

Price gouging life saving medicine is a fucking scumbag move

Ah.

Sorry.

People can die from severe allergies if they don't receive a epi pen quickly

I thought you were discussing something else

Unless you have a medic following you 24/7 you'd die

This shit is literally life / death

Epi-Pens should not be nationalized.

But a person should have access to it.

What would be better

Is if you had multiple companies that had the Epi-pen

Either nationalize it or put maximum price restrictions on it

^

No nationalization

But maximum price restrictions on life saving products I could get behind.

That’s a socialist policy I agree with.

Do you know what an epi pen is

An Epinephrine Auto Injector?

Or have companies sell them to the government and then the government can distribute them

Oh, I thought it was a writing implement

Same here @Deleted User

No writing implement should be nationalized

Epi Pen

Universal healthcare for all citizens - change my mind

I disagree with nationalization, but maximum price restrictions

A healthy population is a productive population

A healthy population can work more, thus contributing to the economy

Universal Base healthcare. But it shouldn’t be something that is focused on there should be a private medical industry.

A healthy population can have more children, thus increasing the declining population of most Western countries

>muh supply and demand

Supply and Demand is bullshit

You’re point is what?

Greed is a much stronger force

My point is that companies will purposely decrease supply to raise prises @Attika

And exploit the supply and demand system

Of course they will.

So will the government

It’s part of human nature

The government doesnt need to drive up prices lol

Do you know what happens when 3 people want the same house?

The price of that house goes up from 300 to 400

The government WILL drive prices up if it means more taxes.

But what if one company owns a neighborhood and they start burning down houses to drive up prices because there are less homes for people who need homes?
