Very sad to see this. Walgreens has closed 17 locations in the past five years and many elderly and disabled people are having a hard time getting their medicines.

Perhaps having national monopolies for pharmaceuticals is a bad idea.

Do you really not grasp that no one can profitably operate under these conditions or is this a troll?

Who's going to set up a shop providing medicine if they aren't making profit from it, you?

Why would you rely on a shop to deliver life saving resources if they're just going to leave as soon as it's not profitable? The market has failed us, we either try something else or leave each other to die.

The only thing government does is spend other people's money with reckless abandon, and much of it goes overseas or into some black hole. There is no defense of this and no excuse for asking for more of it.

There's no defense because it's not based in reality
fundamentally, governments are collectives of people administering rules and resources. The US government sucks at that because it prioritizes businesses, but it has a sovereign currency, it's not "other people's money."
