Capitalism thought Experiment 2: Son of the Thought Experiment
You are a microbiologist and a Capitalist, you are driven by Profit: you invent a vaccine and cure for aids. It is a pill. One pill and anyone who takes it's aids will be cured, and anyone who takes it will never get aids regardless of their previous status. It is easy to produce, and it's cheap to produce.
But wait: while you were inventing this vaccine/cure for aids, you invented a bunch of drugs that made living with aids bearable and prevented the symptoms from killing them, they can take your medicine once a month and live a full-happy life-but would not ever actually cure anyone. You can make this cure/vaccine available and turn a tidy profit, or you can sit on the drugs and become a billionaire.
What do you do?
