Heartless capitalist I have heard before.
Straight from the Communist Manifesto is a new one to me.
Communists are generally not too interested in innovative therapeutics to prolong life - more interested in “death panels” that deny care to the general public while seeking out Western Medicine for the well connected.
When the soviets shot Laika into space, they didn’t think twice, because they knew their masses would, when told what to think, regard her as a hero who died so that a Russian cosmonot wouldn’t have to.
NASA didn’t dream of doing such a thing, at least publicly, because they knew the American public would be squeamish about it, at best. We love our dogs and cats. Yours is an “end justifies the means” mentality that is a good fit for what the soviets were doing not just with Laika, but across the board.
Lifesaving therapies that truly push medical science forward? Okay, though I doubt they need domesticated dogs like the beagle to do it. Cosmetics, or pharmaceuticals that might extend a terminal patient’s life five days (or five hours?) I don’t think so.
