Hell yeah. I wish I'd thought of that the other night when my friend was arguing that the vaccine rollout could only have happened so quickly under capitalism. Obviously that's a stupid argument... The Moderna vaccine was produced from 100% public funded research and capitalism incentivizes the companies to not share their best practices with each other... But I kind of blanked on real life examples.

lmao, the vaccine rollout only even needed to happen so quickly because capitalism fucked up the response from the very beginning
