ok, fair enough, i used single payer incorrectly.

my question remains, you're a pharma CEO, you have 100 million doses, shipping costs aside, where do you send them to maximize profits?

Sweden? China? Russia? Brazil? Cuba? France? no, of course, you send them to the U S of fucking A.


Totally a nit-pick here, but shipping vaccines is basically a rounding error on profits. They're so easy to store and transport. I send things across the world on dry ice regularly for less than $100 via Fedex. If you're shipping huge amounts of vaccine your rate will be way lower and the doses are so profit-dense in terms of size that it's negligable.

true, although rounding errors on the scale of 100+ million can add up, ala Office Space.

in any case less financial and more statistical of a control, so as to get to the point i meant to without interference.

Butcher Box sends the meat in dry ice, it's great, it's always frozen when I get it

in 10 years in conveyor i did 1 dry ice job, in 2020 i did maybe 15.

dry ice guys have had steady stable orders for decades, last year their sales went like +1000%.

They seemed expensive. Is there any reason to use it if I have access to a good butcher?

I like the options and flexibility of it being mailed to my place, but local butcher is definitely better

Hearing horrible things about red meat, fed with "growth activating antibiotics", "animal meal" (beef eating others animals meat ?!), growth hormones, and OGM.
Not to mention red meat cause serious health problème, hopefully PARD people are reasonable and i'm sure they are not abusing it.
