- amalantony06 5y agoSeems like most people here think hospitals and health care companies act purely out of the benevolence of their hearts and not for profit, judging by the down-votes on your comment ;)

- johnisgood 5y agoSome people here really ought to replace Pfizer with Google or Facebook and re-read their sentences. According to some comments here, we have a purely free market and all actors are benevolent, there are no profit incentives "for the worse" (at all, that is, let me quote: "conspiratorial thinking" to think that people are motivated by profits) and so forth, but only as so far as we are talking about COVID-19. I typically read the exact opposites when there are discussions about Facebook, Google, or the market in general.
- zeepzeep 5y agoYeah but they can't do that fast enough, as we've seen. One of the many points where pure captialism fails.
