Pharmaceutical companies making billions of dollars’ profit on drugs whose development was subsidized by the US taxpayer - yet is not affordable to millions of people who need it - is not righteous profit. It is institutionalized theft.

Its more about the lack of companies. Government keeps startups and growth from happening

It's just Capitalism, an economic system based on profit. You don't actually believe investors want less profit do you? The system is working as intended.

They wasted too much on an ineffective vaccine when we could have been making medications people actually need.

1.8 trillion $ to Wallstreet in May 2020. Our tax dollars bailing out the wealthy. Bailing out the drug makers, only for them to double dip and keep us sick and poor. Our govt. is the devil.

possible upside is that people will learn to be proactive about their health and refuse pills & procedures designed to keep them enslaved as customers rather than actually cure anything.

There is no such thing as righteous profit. Either it is exploited from the workers who produce it, or it is exploited from the workers who buy it. Capitalism is in itself institutionalized theft.
