Beehaw's community for socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-authoritarian leftists (this means anti-capitalists) of all stripes. A place for all leftist and labor news and discussion, as long as you're nice about it.
Non-socialists are welcome to come to learn, though it's hard to get to in-depth discussions if the community is constantly fighting over the basics. We ask that non-socialists please be respectful and try not to turn this into a "left vs right" debate forum by asking leading questions or by trying to draw others into a fight.

Oh no. Drug companies do indeed do some massive research. Just via intermediaries that receive Federal tax dollars.
See, you pay out the ass first for the research. Then you pay out the ass to get the medication because "we have to recoup the cost of research" that you already paid for via tax dollars.
See, why rob the average American blind once when you can rob them blind twice?
