well that was your proposal to fix our medical business practice concerns, that we reach type 1

2018-04-24 11:43:31 UTC  

That may require a lot more power than we have right now

2018-04-24 11:44:05 UTC  

Our understanding of the universe and how to use it as a means to improve quality of living is certainly within the concept of civ-1

2018-04-24 11:44:18 UTC  

I haven't read any of this stuff in around 6 years

2018-04-24 11:44:20 UTC  

im not sure if our production capabilities are all that low that we cant actually get this stuff made

2018-04-24 11:44:36 UTC  

Well we can make medicine yes

2018-04-24 11:44:44 UTC  

most of their money i'd assume goes to R&D

2018-04-24 11:44:50 UTC  

Can we make enough of it to treat everyone with the problem at a reasonable cost? Far from it.

2018-04-24 11:45:10 UTC  

Will the shelf-life of the medicine be worth the cost for mass production?

2018-04-24 11:45:29 UTC  

It takes a lot of power to keep something really cold if that's needed.

2018-04-24 11:45:35 UTC  

ya

2018-04-24 11:45:41 UTC  

and we are talking about a growing population

2018-04-24 11:46:05 UTC  

i wonder if the drug Shkreli's company gouged the price on can be excused by cost of production for something almost nobody is buying

2018-04-24 11:46:33 UTC  

The demand is high but the supply is extremely low

2018-04-24 11:46:43 UTC  

taking the objective route he was maximizing his profit

2018-04-24 11:47:03 UTC  

taking the subjective route he was stalling the natural process of medical supply / distribution.

2018-04-24 11:48:05 UTC  

would you suggest any sort of policy reform for the way pharma companies operate, or that they should be left as is?

2018-04-24 11:48:31 UTC  

I don't feel confident enough with the lack of information and research on this topic to advise policies.

2018-04-24 11:49:12 UTC  

I am really saying that it's a pick-your-poison situation, with capitalism having an inevitable long-term benefit.

2018-04-24 11:49:23 UTC  

the most compelling argument against regulation to me, is that R&D will suffer

2018-04-24 11:50:46 UTC  

In a weird and brutal, yet truthful way, suffering is required for others to benefit.

2018-04-24 11:50:56 UTC  

It's also poetic; we are suffering for our children.

2018-04-24 11:51:10 UTC  

sure, we'd have to watch a lot of people die of cancer to cure it

2018-04-24 11:52:28 UTC  

kind of regresses back to one of my core views on things.

2018-04-24 11:52:43 UTC  

goes back to the concept of suffering being necessary in general.

2018-04-24 11:53:18 UTC  

Balance over blind good

2018-04-24 11:53:40 UTC  

Fucking sucks. ๐Ÿ˜

2018-04-24 12:01:40 UTC

2018-04-24 12:01:49 UTC

2018-04-24 12:01:52 UTC  

Academic Agent

2018-04-24 12:02:07 UTC  

He has been in a few of Sargons videos

2018-04-24 12:03:21 UTC  

Yeah I mean I donโ€™t think itโ€™s ban worthy, in the slightest
