Well, the number #1 selling item for Amazon during Covid was the device that made your mouse cursor jiggle. So..... yeah.

From the product going from Amazon to you holding it in your hand. You saying "Yes buy this" about about 1% of the process. What warehouse, delivery method, drivers, date? all that is automated. Can you call it AI yet, meh maybe, maybe not.

You bet movie studios and the like can 100% copyright anything they make.

So, in two years, when everything turns blue, the crying will be how nothing can be fixed, its too far gone. So Dems can't fix it, not in power, and when in power, it can't be fixed. Same old song and dance and same story since forever.

That part about accumulations of wealth. How can that be controlled when most of that wealth is in assets rather than dollars to be taxed or otherwise taken?

They got you with the "per capita" part. It's like comparing the taxes of the rich and the poor. You can say rich pay 2% and poor pay 25%. Or you can say rich pay $800 million and poor pay $1000. Just depends on how you say it.

Better hope no new diseases break out then. Moderna Curbing Investments Don't think other drug companies won't follow.

There goes $1.2 Billion in funding. Guess we'll find out WHOs health care system is better.

I need a vaccine from your font.

It's just games. When you want just a piece, you ask for the whole thing, then when you "settle" for just a piece, people think they've beaten you. Yeah it's wild at that level, but it works.

You're right, good thing they decided not to pursue developing more vaccines. Can't gouge you then, I guess.

Well, they do love a subscription model.

Not if they don't develop them in the first place, as this story is saying.

It was always joked that the US pays for everyone now this story seems to support that fact. I wonder if views would change if more drug companies started saying the same thing.

Funny you mention polio. Dr. Jonas Salk developed the first successful polio vaccine in 1955 and famously chose not to patent it, prioritizing public health over potential profit.
