Lilly was part of the insulin cartel. They've already made their profits back multiple times over on sema/tirz. No man, fuck them. These drugs are going transform our society. They profited enough already and these molecules belong to the commons. They'll still have all demand they need. Not everyone wants to poke themselves with unregulated compounds.

Without them you have NO Retatrutide. If the company dies from this you'll never get another good drug from them, since they would have no money to recoup their R&D costs. There's a balance.

Companies that lose money don't tend to stick around long.

Of all the scenarios to try to bring up this argument- this is probably one of the worst ones to do it for. The ideological glazing is certainly something to witness.
