Uhh, corporate profits? C’mon Marrianne, they can’t just let everyone have the vaccine, how would billionaires pay for their new private planes?
Replying to @marwilliamson
The govt didn't do this before they agreed to pay them to develop the drug? #amateurmove they were supposed to build at least a 2 year window for the drug to be field tested, then let them apply for intellectual property in 20whatever.

If Money is more important to them than saving lives. I don’t know why they would have to consider that because we all already know that they think it is.
Replying to @marwilliamson @banalplay
Whether the donor class will allow them to do this, or if their punishment in campaign cash would be bad enough that they'll lose power
Replying to @marwilliamson
Well we live under capitalism so profit and appeasing corporations is the first thing they will always consider.
