Big
Pharma Cartel Reaps Maximum Profit from COVID-19 Pharmacare There Is an Alternative! - K.C.

Demonstration in New York City. The COVID-19
pharmacare pay-the-rich programs, worth billions of dollars and
resulting in fortunes for certain individuals in control and ownership
of Big Pharma, prove that any form of pharmacare must be all-sided or
it will inevitably become yet another corrupt pay-the-rich
scheme for privileged global oligarchs cynically using a necessary
social program as cover. To endure and be effective in the long run and
not be used to strengthen the oligarchs of Big Pharma, pharmacare must
encompass the development, research, production and delivery of
pharmaceuticals with the aim to serve the people, economy and society
and not the global rich. This requires human-centred public enterprises
to organize the necessary research and develop, produce and deliver
pharmaceuticals to the people without any aspect being infected with
the imperialist aim of private maximum profit. A
true pharmacare program and health care system generally are required
not only for individuals but for the economy and society to function
and develop. The pandemic shows how crucial it has become to have
social conditions that defend and produce a healthy population. If not,
as has been revealed, parts of the economy and even the whole can grind
to a halt. For workers to be readily available to work, the health of
the people amidst a universal free health care system must be built and
maintained. The pandemic proves that to sustain the
investments necessary for a proper health care system, including
pharmacare and seniors' care, the value they produce in the form of
healthy workers has to be realized in a proper exchange within the
economy. All big corporations in the economy of a certain size must pay
for this value, which in fact they require for their existence. These
large corporations must be held responsible to realize (pay for) the
value evident in healthy workers and the capacity to work they bring to
them and the overall economy. Healthy and educated workers are the
essential human factor to produce new value, without which the economy
and society would collapse. The imperialist oligarchs in control refuse
to admit this self-evident truth, and will continue to do so unless
deprived of their ability to deprive the working people of what belongs
to the people by right.
