It is pure capitalism. It is the price the consumer is willing to bear basically. Has no relation to actual cost of research and production.
They look at the cost of alternative treatments and price their product like that. Cost be damned.

Actually is cronycapitalism, which is the core of a lot of the west’s problems.

That is a price the customer is not willing or able to pay, but because of state capture by big pharma, its the price charged, and people literally die because they can’t afford to pay that.

To minimise the deaths and maximise profits, you have private medical insurance, which is basically a life-tax that you need to pay to make sure you can keep on living in case you get seriously ill or injured, finally you have government subsidies topping up corporate profits from general taxation.

It’s one giant racket with astronomical profits paid for with vast inequality and massive needless human suffering and deaths. The only things stopping the plebs rioting in the streets is the power of western MSM propaganda convincing them that this is as good as it can get and that the alternatives are either communist or fake news.

What a meme, I've been talking to german navy guys and they all believe the China gets old before it gets rich, deflation, and evergrande collapse stories, meanwhile german economy is doing good with respect to the global circumstances in their eyes.

The more I think about it the more this China getting old before it goes rich line feels like it’s a lie created by China because of how perfectly it plays to the west’s three biggest collective character flaws: Magical thinking, kicking the can down the road, and belief in manifest destiny.

It’s the perfect excuse for the current generation in the west to not have to make the hard choices and pay the high prices (in treasure and blood) to fight China today, when all they have to do is wait and do nothing and China will magically collapse decades down the line, thereby proving the divine superiority of the western white race once again.

So please keep looking down on China and toasting to the ‘inevitable’ collapse of China western colonialists for a decade or two more, because by the time they realise their mistake, what they think and do will no longer matter because by that time China will be able to crush them like a bug with little risk and cost to itself either economically or militarily.

That’s because western culture, or rather, western elite culture is dominated by a massive sense of inferiority. None of the major western nations can claim direct descent from the Romans who they idolise, the closest is probably tsarist Russia but that’s long dead and gone. Compare their pathetic LARPing over hyperborean atlanteans or Bronze Age Hebrews whereas Chinese can claim descent from ancient Egyptian and Sumerian contemporaries.

That sense of inferiority results in them needing to enslave others to do the hard work that they themselves ought to be doing to cultivate themselves. Noblesse oblige is all well and good but theirs is also a culture where royalty had “whipping boys” and major western religions have a religious totem of the ”scapegoat”. Look at the declaration by Anglo led west slash America, which tries to hobble and control Asian ingenuity and innovation because it hurts their fragile egos, and now we discover that the moon landings could well be fake, which is plausible given the modus operandi of propaganda conscious western leaders. Westernisation will doom humanity to a global dark age.

I wanted to put this into the funny thread, but that is no more, at least temporarily.

Got to wonder how Little Marco ever got elected.

Little Marco says some of the dumbest shit ever.

Hope there is a communist underneath his bed.

What he is suggesting is nationalizing private property… he is the communist.

I’ll go further, have you noticed how the British royal family has an ancient Egyptian fetish? How a lot of esoteric societies amongst the British elite during the 19th to 20th c. related to ancient Egyptian myths and legends. Not unlike Anglo America with its Roman fetish?

The modern religion of this western civilisation is evidently globohomo and the religion of the elites is evidently Zionist Judaism.

why else would criticising Zionism now equate to blasphemy complete with denial of access and funds to blasphemers? Musk with his “F you money” still has to march to

Typical of their deity, the Zionists expect the world to acquiesce to the excesses of their own, as though Zionists are the gods of the world. You cant question European Americans when they genocide Palestinians just because these European americans want to LARP as Bronze Age Hebrews complete with their own “reconstructed” language, nor when they try to claim hummus as their own as their children feed on German bagels and schnitze, distinctly unlevantine.

He was a terrible human, his foreign policy killed thousands. An evil arm of American imperialism.

He's no angel for sure, but who were? All powers do unsavory things for supremacy and the maintenance of their way of life; otherwise, they'll succumb to an eventual power hungrier, thirstier, and more blood thirsty than they are. I don't begrudge Kissinger, and he's ideological acolytes for being who they are.

Our world is a jungle; it's a matter of survival and supremacy. China lost because the leaders became deluded, idiotic, arrogant and lazy. Not to mention unimaginative, uncouth, anti-science/intellectual which stunted Chinese technological innovation resulting into the ruin of the prior Manchu led Qing Dynasty.

3 months after the last Osprey crash, which killed 3 marines in Australia.

Ive been saying that these kind of miliary accidents seem to be happening more frequently.

Viewing the world that way is silly. The world is ultimately divided by class, not nation, especially in the era of capitalism. What Kissinger did had nothing to do with benefiting everyday Americans, but with beating down communist insurgency and preventing it from inspiring those in the west. He was an enemy of humanity.

interesting that 60 percent of Americans surveyed think China is stronger or at least equal in military capabilities to the US.

Now they should ask them if that "Reagan era" build up should come at the expense of the well being of the average US citizen.
