    Wow. You quite seem to enjoy twisting yourself into knots.

    No one suggested that an economic system would solve every problem, but plainly the most essential objective is keeping everyone adequately fed.

    Capitalism is an economic system based on the profit motive.

    The profit motive makes some immensely wealthy, while keeping others deprived.

    Therefore, capitalist society completely fails on its own merits to support the one objective that is singularly most indispensable for any society.

    Do you understand why the objection is being given against capitalism, the system that insists profits are more important than people?

    Also, you have begun descending more deeply into capitalist apologetics, by arguing that the profit motive of pharmaceutical shareholders, and not the skill and dedication of researchers, leads to development of successful therapies.

        You are so fixated on the belief about propagandistic manipulation that you are not even responding coherently, and have not been throughout discussion, to the extremely simply observations being placed before you.

        Your engagement is in bad faith.
