You admit the problem is its not lucrative to make vaccines, then you leave out the part where the government sets the price 50% lower than it had been before federal intervention.

This is always the trouble with socialized services and countries - without the evil profit motive the suppliers dry up and the innovation disappears - they become locked in time - the old soviet union, east german factories - even north korea - its factories look like museums.

The motivation for taking over and lowering costs aka spreading the wealth are noble - it just never works out as planned over time.

We always have multiple flu lines going. Neither the "ordinary" flu nor H1N1 are new - they were known about in the spring.

Of course we don't.....my God can you not stop making stuff for one minute. We did not know the exact coordinates of the H1Ni flu to make the vaccine until June/July. That created a problem. Tell me why..........in your own words.
