It’s mind boggling that with close to 20% of GDP poured into the medical industrial complex, the government can’t subsidize or straight up take over the production of some life saving drugs.
I'm strongly against subsidies. It sounds like the worst of both sides.
Either the government owns the plants or not. Plants can be privatized later if deemed necessary, or kept on government hands to allow the government to have the know-how about the industries it needs to supervise.
