Everyone deserves death, and we all get what we deserve. Some deaths, like those if pharma execs, just happen to be a social good. Murdering someone in a higher tax bracket really shouldn't be a crime.

I'd never kill anyone other than on self defense but if you think I wouldn't cheer if a few of these motherfuckers ended up on lamp posts, you're nuts. Almost every problem with America stems from runaway capitalism and these people are the ones who continue it

Tibalt posted:I dunno man, when you've got people calling for the death of pharma executives because a drug is too expensive to keep in production, I suspect that people have a bad read on this simple situation. It doesn't cost a million loving dollars to manufacture a dose of said drug. That's the only economic reality that matters here and gently caress you for pretending otherwise you piece of poo poo bootlicker.

Ate My Balls Redux posted:My gf is on a biologic and we are lower middle class. I don't think any of the things people are saying are difficult hurdles to clear My general point was that government is not currently in the biologics business. If you wanna say they should be, that's reasonable (very reasonable). If you wanna say they should expropriate IP and give it to rival pharma, that's gonna be trickier and will require a reworking of the whole production process either by coercion or reverse engineering. Either way, neither option is as easy as "seize the formula" . Doesn't mean I'm not all for nationalised/internationalised healthcare at every level though

There is definitely a moral argument to be made that killing a few of these scumfucks to save more innocents is ethically favorable, but neither option is really acceptable and there are no reasons they should be the only two to choose from, but here we are.

I 100% agree. This is why I support the idea of killing Nazis even though I would prefer killing no one. At a certain point it constitutes collective self-defense and I accept that.

I feel like the part centrists ignore is that there is am implied social contract capitalists engage in, where the employers pay a wage that keeps the employees living and comfortable, and society functioning in exchange for the lower classes not just massing and violently taking their stuff and possibly their lives through sheer numbers. And when one side continually breaks that contract, eventually there will be consequences. When you get these rich people out there acting like they have no idea why people are so upset at them, I feel like maybe a reminder of the agreed-upon order is required

I mean truth be told I actually personally hope that if God is real that there is no Hell, because the idea of Hell seems directly contradictory to an all-loving God to me even if it's "the absence or rejection of God" or whatever it is the Catholic Church rationalizes it as these days. Also it was discussed in the 2020 primary thread but Beto may run for president as an attempt to get a VP slot.

Lightning Knight posted:Is there any material scientific purpose to sending human beings into space at this point versus exploration drones? I was under the impression human spaceflight was mostly a PR/political thing and we could do just fine with robots. Fixing the Hubble Telescope would not have been possible without human spaceflight. We also get to learn about the human body and do other experiments that aren't otherwise economical (e.g. designing/building a specific machine for one experiment might be more expensive than sending a human who can do a variety of things).

H Alloy, I'm not arguing that we shouldn't do something about the orphan drug problem. I'm arguing that 1.) That really isn't what's going on here and 2.) Continuous production still wouldn't be the solution.

Trump's likeability is a mystery to you because you aren't a bad person. The type of people attracted to Trump are bad people. The issue basically is that liberal media has decided to portray the "average Trump voter" as trailer-dwelling lower class white people, when in reality his base of support is well-to-do suburban white people. That the latter group may actually be atrocious people is anathema to the media because it implies the entire basis of American culture is rotten.
