Yeah research is part of the cost to manufacture cause you first need to know what you’re making hahaha.
Margin-capping isn’t even something we should consider when you don’t run it for profit.
I think the people should own the means of production where it makes sense. Healthcare is an obvious example because it’s a service directly for us.
People getting rich and making millions off the suffering of an unhealthy population is morally wrong.

If there is no profit, then nobody would make it.
It never makes sense. You can do that now, but nobody does because it doesn’t make sense.

You forgot the part where I said their pay is considered part of the cost to manufacture and distribute.
Non-profits have no problem staying staffed.
It absolutely makes sense for the people to own the mechanism that directly benefits their wellbeing, yes.

Then why haven’t you started this business? Sounds like you have it all figured out

Because we need congressional action to make it legal, and to make the current system of profiteering off healthcare illegal.
I would love to be a part of those discussions and fully intend to continue doing so ;)
