Under a capitalistic system with little to no regulation, a company could manufacture a virus and also manufacture a vaccine to cure the same virus. This would yield a shit load of profit if the company released the virus, and then came out with the cure shortly afterwards.
Under a socialistic system, this would never happen.
>manufacture a virus Infecting others (even by negligence) would still be a crime, unless you have total anarchy. >Under a socialistic system You don't need deadly viruses to kill your own people.
Kayden Stewart
Socialist system, at that point it would have become Communism, and that state would have used the virus for war instead of profit.
Is that better?
Ian Peterson
No, the virus never would have been approved for manufacturing, and no cure would be worked on, and those resources would be delegated to some other task
Isaiah Garcia
Communist society kills with just not letting you eat, so efficient.
Oliver Hughes
>The virus never would have been approved for manufacturing Approved by whom? The government? Yeah a government wouldn't have any reason to want complete control over a brand new virus.
Dylan Hughes
A government of good, genuine people, no. They would have no reason to do that
Nathaniel Fisher
The R&D required to manufacture a virus capable infecting any amount of humans would far outweigh any profit gained from a cure.
And if you actually did this nobody would be in the wrong for showing up to your facility and putting a gun to the leadership's head to release the virus for free.
Christian Bailey
A government of good, genuine people, no. They would have no reason to do that.
You are correct. Now let me hear just one government in the history of mankind that was like that. Go ahead, enlighten us smartypants.
Charles Torres
release the cure*** for free
Chase Harris
under a capitalist system WITH regulation it would also not happen.
it isnt black or white
Austin Jackson
If this was so profitable why has it never happened, you fucking commie retard?
Joshua Gomez
Because my commie rules have been saving your ass, you free market cuck

Capitalism: >It's brilliant, you see. They either give us money for the vaccine, or they get infected and die. They have no choice in the matter!
Communism: >It's brilliant, you see. They either give us money to be ((redistributed)), or they get sent to gulag and die. They have no choice in the matter!
Logan Allen
It hasn't happened yet, because capitalistic pigs infiltrated each of these socialist states and corrupted the government. If we had an entire government of Bernie Sanders clones, we would be living in a Utopia essentially.
Luis Morris
As cool as the berns is, we couldn't possibly assume that'd solve everything
Nolan Thompson
Well, somebody just got done watching Mission Impossible II.
Logan Carter
Yeah the socialists would just cull the population when it got too big.
Robert James
>OP mistakes anarchi-capitalism for libertarianism Oh this is so totally new
Forcing someone to buy a vaccine under threat of dying a horrible death at the hands of a virus is exactly against the non aggression principle. Libertarianism still requires a state, it's just meant to be minimal and night watchman like. A left libertarian would say we only need a state because bad people still exist.
Ian Thompson
uhhh, if they got caught there are still murder and conspiracy laws to charge them with. Low regulation doesn't mean no criminal laws retard. Sage
Levi Reed
Wrong, that would be murder/attempted murder, and would thus be illegal.
Cooper Perry
What if I'm a water bottle company and I put the virus in the water(my property) and then about a hundred-thousand people or so willingly buy my water bottles before they're aware of the virus, and then I sell it to them? No NAP was violated there
It's not against the law to 'research' a virus for 'medical reasons' and then 'accidentally' release it
David Allen
That would probably amount to criminal negligence, or something.
Justin Sanchez
It's called national socialism read Into it, it finds a way to get rid of the capitalist pigs
Jordan Moore
The government would do that sort of thing too but instead of money they would just act like heroes
Jack Richardson
Legitimately kill yourself
Sebastian Gray
In the words of your family, friends, mother and father, "you're a retard."
there is nothing ethically wrong with what you proposed. if people have such weak constitutions that they get infected by viruses they deserve to either pay up or die.
Chase Davis
It's time for all little commies to stow their fedora and to go to bed.
Owen Taylor
Fucking Americans. You don't know shit about communism.
Robert Lee
But bernie is a greedy pig
Jack Williams
socialism would do it so that people would justify the governments existence.
Carter White
yes we all wish we could live under a philosopher king
Carson Harris
>Under a capitalistic system with little to no regulation, That's not capitalism. Every society has buying and selling, meaning that isn't what capitalism really is.
Dylan Mitchell
Yes, completely unregulated capitalism is bad, but that doesn't mean socialism is necessarily good.
Chase Morgan
Why take the time to type a reply and solve a captcha if you have nothing to say? Are your feelings really so delicate that you just have to blindly lash out?
Evan Perez
Done and done. 10 times the world over. Doesn't matter what form of government is installed. Same money infiltrates and corrupts .
Caleb Sanders
Are you talking about this? How would any state be better?
Jackson Lewis
But honestly, would this ever happen in reality?
Wyatt Reed
Forgot the pic
Jackson Ortiz
No another company would manufacture the vaccine for cheaper, undercutting the original company.
Camden Wood
>Under a capitalistic system with little to no regulation, a company could manufacture a virus and also manufacture a vaccine to cure the same virus.
Its like you commies just don't fucking get why we have guns.
>Under a socialistic system, this would never happen.
No under a socialist system the state could just take your property at gun point without going through the formality of luring you into buying something.
The artificial viruses would be reserved for population control.
Hudson Martin
Biological terrorism is illegal. And it could occur in a socialist society. It could occur in our current society. But it doesn't, because it's illegal.
Matthew White
good thing we have regulations to stop them from killing people for money.
