    People taking their needed medication aren’t at fault for the predatory systems that control distribution and pricing. The blame falls on the institutions that fail us, not on the properly medicated.

          Don’t tell him about the water supply. It’s filled with chemicals known as Dihydrogen monoxide. 100% of the people who comes into contact with it eventually dies. This must stop! Ban Dihydrogen monoxide!

            Good point, there are no morally bankrupt monopolies or mega corporations in the food industry. Thank goodness

                Well, if there were a couple of thousand of them in your state then they wouldn’t be alone would they, so which is it?

                Good point again though, anyone can grow food! Anyway, I’m off to grow my rice, wheat, sugar, cocoa, coffee, vegetables and milk for the day.

        The research in question here obviously isn’t pubmed or publishing journals but boomer Facebook memes, “holistic” mommy bloggers and at least a few nazis in a trench coat pretending to be a doctor

        If by “do your own research” you mean “read the studies” then by all means, go ahead. If, and I guess that’ll be the case for 99% of people without related degrees, you can’t understand them you should accept that you’re in no way equipped to do your own research.

        I can only assume from this comment that you’re American. In countries with nationalised healthcare, our medical professionals don’t profit at all from selling medication; they prescribe medication because it is what their patients need. America might have a profit-driven healthcare system but don’t assume that every country does.
