If the influence of ideology is enough to convince you to snipe children in the head, you’re still a bad person. Weird take to be presented with children who were shot by a weapon that’s purpose built for accuracy and rush to defend the person that pulled the trigger. Edit: grammar

We’ve inflated prices but now people aren’t buying as much stuff. Why is this happening??

If you’re not going to share the sources of these “studies and sources” or provide a meaningful definition of “excess deaths” then you’re asking complete strangers to rely on anecdotal evidence and your own personal judgement. Seems far more irresponsible than sharing an article with multiple public health organizations and medical professionals among it sources.

Having a hard time remembering the details but isn’t this a major plot point in A Brave New World?

I have four… somewhere around here. There’s usually one nearby when I need it.

Fair point. I would say that something similar happens with private insurance as well. I don’t claim to have the solution for greed but it sure would be nice to enjoy a system where health outcomes take priority over profit.

Not sure why people say this like it’s a surprise or somehow bad. Paying for public health measures, or just healthcare in general is way better than where a lot of tax revenue winds up.
