Classic move—attacking me because your argument ran out of steam.
Your philistine viewpoint is still under researched and, frankly, unknowledgeable.
Your points don't make sense. Let's dig into bulbs, antibiotics and Vaccines from a $ perspective.
Filament light bulbs are gone because someone else sold a more efficient bulb and changed the market...and made boat load of cash and literally made filament bulbs extinct. $
Penicillin and later antibiotics cured deadly infections that once required long hospital stays. These cures transformed modern medicine and became some of the most profitable drugs ever sold.$
Lastly my Vaccines example, Smallpox required endless isolation facilities and caretaking. The vaccine eliminated an entire global disease. It was also massively funded, widely purchased, and financially successful for its creators.$
I really hope you're at least getting paid to post this badly my dude
