Coming out of this health crisis would be a great time to re-evaluate how we spend research dollars. I think capitalism has gone too far with medical research. So much money is wasted by the public, and by companies on absurd things like beauty products, non-essential cures for things that aren’t really a problem, etc. Billions of dollars that should go into real medical research and real medical planning. Having enough medical supplies for medical emergencies. Or, tax the crap out of these things and put the money into funding real research.
Will we?
I doubt the 2 main parties are willing to take on capitalism.
