    I hear prices for medical goods are rising tenfold as different states try to outbid each other for limited supplier contracts. What the actual fuck.

    • Disaster capitalism in its purest form.monoboy
    • I love when America pulls together as a nation in a crisis.PhanLo
    • Murica that's why.utopian
    • If u dont raise prices with demand u get super hoarders unless u limit and ration. Limit and ration doesn't encourage more suppliers to come into the marketdeathboy
    • Place though so u will have limited production. A higher price premium drives competition and new production into the sector though. U might not like the pricedeathboy
    • Increase but don't neglect what it's does to provide. Think ying to telecoms price gateways that spurred invention, competition and drove costs down.deathboy
    • The alternative is forcing firms and haggling on price. For sure they will come in over budget and slow to produce when no one wants to make themdeathboy
    • Since their is no incentive. Capitalism 101deathboy
    • Not to mention Price discovery. Markets without that are not markets. A question of product viability and scale may rest on fda approved equipment vs peer reviedeathboy
    • I'd look at removing gov bottlenecks that hinder production and encourage diligence on doctors and hospitals and how desperate they are. Why let someone diedeathboy
    • Waiting on lack of something vs trying what is on hand and sharing wether a success or notdeathboy
    • If all of that sounds crazy vs what is being done than I guess I'm crazydeathboy
    • Traditionally it’s lowering prices that causes competition. NOT the other way around which is the basis for your entire nonsense theorymonospaced
    • Also, what government bottleneck is stopping production? That’s right. None. You’re making it up.monospaced
    • Mono. When there is a high price premium for so etching in demand u create Incentive for competitiondeathboy
    • People want that capital and see ways of undercutting. It's innovation and competition that created lower pricesdeathboy
    • U can't force lower prices by gov decree to create competition. U create less competition. Ie when Obamacare set it's standards competition in nv for disasterdeathboy
    • Healthcare shrank from 16 to 3. One major medical with such terrible price points and a ever changing fly by night scam versionsdeathboy
    • Again shows how little understanding of markets forces u know. But it's not like u ever got any study on it either. Just a simp repeating what u are tolddeathboy
    • Think about it your idea lowering price's creates competition. What are u a designer or some shit. Let's lower your pay to grow economy and competitiondeathboy
    • How u can even think that works is beyo d me even with logical fallacies. It's absurddeathboy
    • Side-notes boy to the rescue, what a loon.utopian
    • Yea yea. Make comment in disdain in hopes creates similar sentiment outside objective reason. only real weapon u havedeathboy
    • When u can't debate or argue a point the parlor games are quite tritedeathboy
    • you are a walking fallacy, and the delusion that you are the sole human with the answers why EVERYONE ALIVE ON THE PLANET is wrong is insanity (or stupidity)monospaced
    • See, the thing is, I work in a world where market fluctuations are part of my job. You live in your mom's basement and have no education. Do the math.monospaced
    • So, when I say that lowering prices causes competition, it's true. Look at the history of market competition. It's always the case. Always.monospaced
    • Another 20-30 dumbfuck, rambling, incorherent notes about how stupid your idea is is expected. Go on, dumbfuck. Show me your stupid. Please.monospaced
    • Your argument of fake authority. Is not reason. You are simply a fool that wears it proudly. I say it so it is so! Release the kraken! Hahadeathboy
    • U can't provide substance on an intellectual level but u do provide comedydeathboy
