Profit, not just payment for services, but PROFIT from the suffering of others. What a disgusting way to earn a living.
This ad from a consortium of pharmaceutical companies basically threatening to stop innovating if we reduce drug prices the wrong way makes me ill. The profit motive in medicine leads to perverse incentives. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theatlantic.com/amp/article/585253/ …https://twitter.com/AccountistLisa/status/1175966422880489472 …

I saw this ad during @MeetThePress today.
An emotional plea for R&D.
So, I went to their website and read the info.
It struck me as a threat, to stop researching cures for cancer & Alzheimer’s, which my mom died of, a year ago, if Rx prices are reduced.

Crazy liars get all their research money from federal research grants and universities. So they’re lying through their teeth again. Do you know who needs rehab? Billionaires!pic.twitter.com/4FotXYijbB

I used to work in a research facility. Trust me...most of their research is GARBAGE carried out by unqualified personnel. In short, this is a pretty hollow threat. Let "research" be carried out in universities, not by people who will profit from skewed results.
