After receiving billions in federal contracts, Pfizer wants to charge up to $130 for a COVID vaccine shot that costs as little as $1.18 to manufacture – 10,000% above cost. Enough is enough. The COVID vaccine should cost $0. Pfizer's greed is killing people throughout the world.
While the cost of Halloween candy has surged more than 13.1% since last September, the Mars candy bar family became 44% richer during the pandemic increasing their wealth by $32.6 billion. The Mars family is now worth $106.8 billion.
Do you know what’s scary? Corporate greed.
The inventors of insulin sold their patents for $1 in 1923. And yet, the price of insulin in America has gone up by over 1,000% since 1999 causing 1.3 million diabetics in our country to ration insulin last year. It should not cost 10x more for insulin than it does in Canada.
I believe that on issue after issue — decent wages, workers' rights, education, health care, childcare — we have the vast majority of the people behind us.
The Saudi Arabian regime treats women as third-class citizens, tortures civilians, and now is siding with Putin in the war against Ukraine. Yes, we must pull US troops out of Saudi Arabia, stop selling them weapons, and end its price-fixing oil cartel.
The oil and gas industry is making huge profits. The pharmaceutical industry is making huge profits. The food industry is making huge profits. Outrageous levels of corporate greed are fueling the inflation that is hurting so many people.
There are millions of Americans who look at Washington and they say, you know what? I'm falling further and further behind. I can't afford health care. I can't afford my prescriptions. I can't afford childcare. Who is listening to me?
@ProudSocialist After nuking Japan in 1945, that could've been it for the USA in terms of War. But no, they think that they just have to expand and maintain Capitalism around the world and the People around the world are suffering because of it. War always links to Capitalism.
War is big business.
And nobody exports more missiles, bombs, & arms than the U.S.
Remember this next time you believe U.S. politicians when it comes to matters of war.
Empires that make trillions of dollars off war will always make peace seem “radical.”
Let me congratulate the Apple Store workers in Oklahoma City for voting to become the 2nd unionized Apple Store in the US. Last year, Apple made a record $95 billion profit. Its billionaire CEO made $99 million in 2021. It's time for Apple to treat its workers with respect.
