of course you'd link a right-wing libertarian institutional study for your reply :rofl:
find me a non-biased study and we can talk. or how about you give me some of your own opinions?
I can link myriad studies that show the opposite


No. You don't get to dictate the terms of who I choose for source material.
I doubt you can source studies on the government reducing the price of health care.

if you want an open and honest discussion, then yeah, you need objective source material and not something funded by people who are anti-government.
do you think it makes sense that insulin in the united states costs 10x more than it does in Canada? do you think it should be price capped or do you think its okay for pharmaceutical manufacturers to butt fuck americans with exorbitant drug costs?
its even worse than that though because pharma companies' research is subsidized by TAX PAYERS money. they socialize the cost of their product and privatize the profits.
tax payer money has funded every new drug in the last decade

automatically dismissing arguments and facts because they are from people who hold a differing view is an anti-intellectual exercise.

Insulin is a perfect example of government intervention artificially driving up the price. A free market for insulin would be far superior and more affordable.

You're proceeding under the assumption that actors with a viewpoint are incapable of being correct.

I didn't link a study, by the way, I linked to an article that goes logically from point to point to describe just how government actions increased prices in healthcare and why.

You're talking to someone supporting gene therapy and calling it a vaccine out of plain ignorance, what do you expect

Many pro government groups frame small government and constitutionalist Fed types as 'anti-government'. Better to be ignorant though than crush them on the merits of their principles. Southern Poverty Law Center goes further and calls them 'hate groups'. Literally targeting those exercising 1st amendment rights
