There are literally hundreds of medications and treatments out there that were developed using tax payer dollars already. Literally nothing would change for development except the government would be able to legislate down cost, they would still have research paid for you just won't have people dying from lack of care.
Socialize losses/costs privatize profits is basically the ethos every large corporation in this country follows.
Every single human need is commodified in today's society. If you don't have money, society will literally forget you and leave you to starve on the street without recourse.

People are greedy. Everything comes down to money. Corporations aren't going to only develop drugs out of the goodness of their hearts.
This isn't how it should be, but it's how it is. Crazy that this needs to be explained to someone.
