    I’m not disagreeing with most of what you said but throwing money at a problem would have significantly higher return on investment if that money wasn’t being slurped up by the capitalist machine.

    It also might work a bit better if the country as a whole hadn’t been institutionalising profit driven medical sciences for the last 100 years.

    Or to use an analogy.

    It’s like pointing out that “just throwing oil” at a car engine that hasn’t been serviced in 150k is a failure of oil to fix the problem.

    I mean, yes, technically you have a problem, you put oil in and the problem didn’t go away, but is the problem really the oil ?

    In this analogy capitalism is the oil thieves, draining your oil out of the bottom of the engine while you fill it up.
