Understanding exactly how much of modern health systems/guidelines are based off of capitalism incentivized research which then get some form of regulatory stamps of approval is appalling.
Not griping about capitalism, I think its the best thing out there for the economy, its just that we haven't figured out a way to prevent it from creating authoritative science backed research that somehow always promotes the funding party's product.
