Illegally manufacturing expensive cancer drugs under patent and selling them on the black market cheaper would be a very interesting reimagining of BB.
walter never gets high on his own supply, dies
Pride would force him to only pay for cancer drugs the "legal" way. He'd fly too close to the sun trying to make enough money to afford them full price without insurance and create his own downfall. Cue "Baby Blue" by Badfinger as Walt dies after running out of legit cancer drugs that are blue pills while he has a barrel of them that he made in the other room.
I love the idea behind this movement but there's no validation or proof to know what you make is actually effective.
I'd love to see the guy behind this movement actually do studies on the efficacy of home made pharmaceuticals but then I have a feeling that big pharma would shut it down.
If the alternative is cost prohibitive and you have no insurance or some fascist wants to prevent certain people from certain types of care, I think the point is pretty moot. I'm assuming efficacy would be directly related to the skill and knowledge of your cook, just like meth.
I assume there's a market of very desperate state-locked women that'd only grow with the second Trump presidency, if we center up on abortion medications they provide. If I were in this collective, I'd go far and beyond with veryfying drug makers on a personal level, maybe giving them something akin to a checkmark on their own site, because there is a threat of right-wing fuckos selling meth or rat poison while cosplaying as a legit makeshift anrchist lab under their guidance. Ough, what a sentence. Anyway, yeah, the circle of trust should be tight with that one and if I was a woman (or any patient) I could've used a couple of peers confirming they had a good batch from the X lab and it caused no harm to them. If we are talking serious drugs one little fucked up doze is enough to bury you, and it takes a very dedicated person to try it first.
Oi. It’s bad enough people burn their houses down trying to do their own electric … well, I guess this way they’re only harming themselves, right? Yeah no, this is totally going to be used in the family too, isn’t it?
Still better outcomes than being born a Christian Scientist
Original
it's the same? Also has the author's name is still visible
It's not the same. It's a higher quality image. It also seems like someone colored in their lab suits yellow.
I made no claims about not having the author's name. I'm just providing a convenient link to more of their content.
You can make even more money denying cancer drugs.
I've been saying for years that
A) It'd be cool if
And
B) Someone eventually will
Make/smuggle black market medicine (not drugs medicine, ykwim) and sell it both through the good ol sneakernet or even onion sites like WHM or SR.
Planet Money podcast did a bit where they followed up with people who fell for buying cheap pharmaceuticals from spam emails.
The assumption was that people paid the too good to be true prices, and then never got anything in the mail.
The weird twist was that everyone interviewed was really satisfied with the product they received.
Now, all disclaimers certainly apply: don't trust a spammer with your life, there's nothing to stop imitator scammers from joining the legitimate?! spammers, and people's satisfaction is a poor measure of drug safety and efficacy.
But it does seem like a sign that someone is doing some of this already.
