Thread: Dumb Thai Learns about the real world

But the developing country just gave millions of Baht raises to its military generals didn't it, and how many million did it give for Aids drugs because some dumb fuck couldn't afford a pack of Trojans.

Blame every American because some dumb African was fucking a monkey and then the village ate it and gave Aids to some queer ships steward.[rough genealogy]

Then USA did have someone smart enough to figure out a drug that works, now everyone wants em to give it away..

If Thailand thinks that the poor should have what others got, why didn't they give my poor govt employed school teacher wife a new Toyota foreskinner instead of making me buy it??

If you cant afford the Aids meds, then keep your dick in your pants..

Gotta call you on this the USA didn;t figure out shit some fucking top-end bloated fucking corporation weenie did. he gets fucking peanuts compared to the profits made by his lord-and-fucking-masters. The USA governement is doing nothing but protecting the profits of some fucking company that pours (comparatively) meager amounts of money into politicians back-door profit centers.

Comparing the billions of dollars these company make due to over-zealous protection by their own bought and fuckin paid for enforcers (commonly referred to as the current administration or US Government) to the few thousand dollars paid to the rulers of this nation is just a tad naive don't you think?

While you chew on that tid-bit of information it's not just Thais that are getting fucked by this approach it is YOU and I, and every other US citizen that pays taxes (OK maybe not me) Health insurance or even gives a fuck about The fact out government is nothing but a cover for the corporate price gouging at those in need's expense. And while you're chewing on THAT extra bite realize too, there are many people in the USA today that cannot afford these drugs and WILL NOT GET THEM BECAUSE THEY CANNOT FUCKIN PAY! they will eventually buy under the table drugs bought from foreign suppliers/manufacturers, if these drugs can be smuggled into the coutry or, most likely, die.

Stop waving the fuckin flag a minute and think about what the government of your country (and mine too, goddamit) is doing in your name, in my name and the name of all the other poor fuckers back home's name. The US government preaches democracy and majority rule, the rest of the world is convinced you and I are behind these policies, majority did NOT (and has not for a while now) rule.

I for one am sick of it and for the last damn-near decade our country has been for nothing other than the further enrichment of those with the strings.

For more than a few decades it has increased it's reach with new agencies for the control and interdiction of fanciful "threats to security" while doing nothing more than enlarging it's intrusion into private business and affairs in the name of protecting company profits. The DEA and the HLS come to mind with little more than a heart-beat of thought. Al this while robbing public health care, children's programs and education.

If you believe in your country how can you be anything other than dismayed in the least, if not totally enraged? While waving the fucking flag, think long and hard about what it means to you realize as a patriot is your duty NOT to parrot every fucking government policy but to question each and every fucking one of them. In this instance they are fucking wrong. the joke that is US health-care system.

There is no US health-care system. It is a for-profit-pay-or-die system at best designed to squeeze every fuckin dollar out who ever can pay and fuck the rest.

I'm sure a compromise can be worked out whereby the drug companies continue to make ridiculous profits and affordable medicines are made available to those who need them. I know there's the argument of 'We need the money for further R&D" - But I'm sure there'll continue to be 'enough' money for all - Capitalism can work, but sometimes it doesn't do any harm to slap it on the wrist and say, "Stop being so bloody greedy!"

The country is struggling to provide health-care for the needy, why should they pay exorbitant prices to make the big drug companies richer?

The country is struggling to provide golf courses for the greedy (ever try counting them)....

So us germans can keep their jobs at BASF, BAYER, etc.


O.K. let me stop being sarcastic. That drug companies are spending more money on commercials and marketing then research is another sad fact. That there is no cure for malaria is another sad fact because the drug companies are not making any profits for this research.
Thailand is spending most of its money from foreign aid for its infrastructure. Now lets be honest! The streets (infrastructure) in Thailand are a mess, but the countless golf courses are beautiful.

Who are the real crooks? The Drug Co. or the Thai govt.? Lets call it a draw.


Ohhh I forget...my suggestion...let's take all the money that is used for foreign aid and invest it in research and affordable drug prices for the poor. To some people supprise this might even include a lot of poor germans and americans.
