Maybe we would have a cure for most cancer by now.

You cannot see the damage done by regulation, but it exists.

Regulation is always a trade-off.

It’s not “us vs them”. It’s us vs us.

Jesus, no idea what to say here... Just one thing: mRNA vaccines, coming out of cancer treatment research, one of the most sucessful companies is actually German, and they use the mountains of cash they made during Covid, partnering with Pfizer on Covid vaccines, to really push the cancer research.

Unregulated medical research is bad, like in really, literall Nazi doctor bad. Shocking it still has to pointed out...

A buncjlh of the EU rules around medical research and drug development is, in fact, based on experience with leteral Nazo experimentation done by the likes of Dr. Mengele. Dor once not an internet drope, but rather historical fact.
