Ok? So wouldn't Big Pharma be included in the those general profits? Like one of the the big major huge extravagant profits even before this pandemic, price gouging, opioid epidemic, fraudulent marketing claims and countless other crimes over the years?

None of that contributes to income inequality or serious consequences? Or not enough to risk being infected with a mild to severe virus with a low mortality rate and instead agree to endless jabs and boosts and profits and all that comes with it?

Certainly. I am against the abuses of Big pharma and Big corp and would argue that they should have received much much bigger fines for those abuses. (I am however not against science or vaccines, which are part of a global resarch project, of which US Big pharma is only a portion. And it helped to have US Big pharma in order to respond to COVID. Alternatives to this process were vaccine factories in India, China and Russia, which I think have been less regulated than the Pfizer factories.)

Me neither.

Big pharma is only a portion.

Seriously?
