From the NY Post.

I know that appearances should not be a factor on quantifying a person, but the dude looks like the dumb grandson of Deputy Bernie Fife.  And since crime appears to be alive and well, I might not be off the mark altogether,

How much proof do you need that Democrats have no idea how economics works or how to run a business?

Presidential candidate Kamala Harris Tweeted this thinking it was a good idea:

As president, I’ll give Congress 100 days to send legislation to my desk to stop Big Pharma from raking in massive profits at the expense of Americans.

If Congress won’t act, I will.

— Kamala Harris (@KamalaHarris) July 21, 2019

Profits drive investment, investment drives R&D.  Without profits, companies contract and the first thing to get cut is R&D.

Always.

Massive profits make R&D possible.

So Kamala Harris believes, or is banking on her followers believing (or both), that the government can curtail the profits of the pharmaceutical industry and all that will happen is that fat-cat executives will have to cut back on their cocaine and $1000/hour hooker parties aboard their champagne powered mega-yachts.

What will really happen is that new drug development will drop to zero meaning that eventually, the big pharmaceutical companies will go belly up as their IP goes generic.

The real result of her executive action will be:

1. New and better cures for diseases or conditions will go undiscovered.
2. Lots of people will lose their jobs.
3. The economy will take a massive hit.
4. Sick people will suffer.

But at least no fat-cat executives will be making huge profits, and this is something for the envy mongers.

What I can’t figure out is if this destruction of pharmaceutical R&D is a feature or a bug.

What I do know is that whenever I have seen pharmaceutical executives testify before Congress, the one question I want someone to ask, I’ve never seen asked.

“Alright.  Tell me, as a member of Congress, what I can do to make it possible for you pharmaceutical companies to make crazy huge profits while at the same time lowering the cost of your drugs to the consumer?”

If the goal is lowering drug costs that should be the focus.  Not attacking the profits of the industry.  I want high profits for R&D with low drug costs.

I believe it’s possible to have low-cost drugs and high profits for R&D, then again, I don’t hate it when other people make a profit.

And personally, I don’t care how some pharmaceutical CEO sleeps on top of a pile of gold like a dragon’s hoard, if the exchange is that if some woman in my life that I love gets breast cancer, the latest and greatest chemotherapy saves her life with no surgery and minimal side effects.

I smell somebody wanting to re-do the Lesbian Cake Incident

A transgender woman was left “humiliated” after a Melbourne, Australia salon refused to give her a Brazilian wax, saying they were not qualified to do “male genitalia”.

This Trans Woman Couldn’t Get A Brazilian Because She Hasn’t Had Surgery

I call this bullshit. As a male, if I accidentally pull a hair from my scrotum, I am ready to give up state secrets and passwords for ATM even when I do not know them. That hurts like a MoFo. This guy wants to wax the whole MOPAR transmission with Hurst Shifter still installed?   Not unless he has a spinal block and half a bottle of tequila already ingested.

IWI Uzi with a vertical, folding stock.

I got a nosebleed just laying my eyes on the page. And where did she get the registering thing? If that was true, you’d be hearing the screaming all over gun forums and the thunder of chest thumping like African drums in an old Tarzan movie

I still have family in Spain that are shepherds, but I know squat about sheep and do not write about the cursed animals nor I pretend I know about them.

It will make you cringe in more ways than one.  Holy flock!

Why do they need a campaign? I thought it was all done and bought back or confiscated decades ago.
