You make the most profit by coming up with life-saving medicine, making a boatload off it, and putting your competitors out of business. The company that cures cancer will literally destroy their competitors. From that point on they print money. And think of the good will and brand value from a move like that.
They don’t need to keep us sick. There will always be new diseases and new ways to get hurt. Evolution and stupidity see to that. And if they did solve for that somehow, then their focus would be on keeping us alive and healthy in old age.
Is this /s or not I can’t tell. Well they definitely benefit from drugs that you have to constantly take. For years. Until you die. That’s their business model. If there could be a drug that cures you instantly, there is no effort to develop it by this company who sells you this constant supply of drug. So yes. Pharma has an interest in you staying sick enough to need treatment and not die.
I have several credit cards I use regularly, and literally don’t know or care what the interest rates are because I pay my statement balance every month, which I can do because I don’t buy more than I can afford.
Also every bank has a fee schedule they are required to make public (so you can see it before you even do any business with it, so you can very easily shop around for those with lower/fewer fees) and directly provide to everyone upon account opening. If you are ever surprised by a fee a bank charged you, that’s on you, period.
That was me too, for many years. Credit score well into the eight hundreds. But life isn’t always fair. You’ve been fortunate not to have the rug swept out from under you so far. Don’t get too comfortable. Shit happens.
For sure, via increasing prices not by selling snake oil
What part of our medical science do you doubt? You mentioned that they wanna ban vaccines so I reckon you trust them, what about surgeries, prescriptions? Maybe diagnostic tests?
We must have got mixed up. I don’t doubt medical science in any way. My point is that the corporations dealing the stuff would rather withhold an actual cure if it means it’ll make them more money. Failing that, they’ll jack up the prices.
You’re right, one tries to kill you after they’ve extracted all your money, the other bribes journals and regulators to get you addicted to drugs that kill you after you can no longer afford them.
Except that finding a cure for any disease would be insanely profitable. I think even health insurance companies would prefer that their members are healthy so they can just charge premiums without having to pay anything out. This whole “big pharma is hiding the cure for X for profits” conspiracy has always been garbage when you actually consider it for than a second
Oh, come off it! Pharma is keeping us sick, really? Listen to yourself!
Have you heard of Perdue Pharmaceuticals, by chance?
Make more profit if you’re ill.

Thank you. Pharma has other issues that aren’t good for society but believing this is for the absolute tinfoil hat crew.

Also, a bank can’t just decide to put you in debt, lol. Nor can it keep you in debt if you pay it off.
This is some im14andthisisdeep stuff lol
True but they can use predatory tactics to get people roped in. They can tack on rediculous interest rates and fees…

You are incorrect.
This is common knowledge. And now this country wants to prevent people from getting vaccines. Not my fault you haven’t been paying attention.
Pharma wants to keep us sick by keeping us from their product? Hear yourself mate!
I am semi-certain that because of their corporate interest that the orange fucks cracker won’t dare ban it!
They will take the path that leads them to the most profits.

What part?
Opioids are safe and not habit forming, according to the FDA.
Which opioids? Codeine? Wont even relieve your stronger headache
Out of curiosity, as a bioengineer, what do you think what opiods are?
Did you actually sleep through the last 25 years?
How the fuck dare you defend Purdue pharma and the FDA.
I am not? Maybe you should get to 2nd grader reading comprehension?
Dr Seuss is genuinely a great book even as an adult, no shame in reading it!

Medical insurance and big pharma are two separate entities
You’re right, one tries to kill you after they’ve extracted all your money, the other bribes journals and regulators to get you addicted to drugs that kill you after you can no longer afford them.
I genuinely wonder which one you meant for which? You know, if you don’t know what we are talking about you really don’t have to comment?
