La Cucaracha by Lalo Alcaraz for June 03, 2022

somebody please give back the babies’ formula!

Profit before lives.

You’d think by now the factories like Abbot would be cleaned up and be back up and running and product would be on shelves again.

And yet somehow the people who want government out of our lives are blaming the administration for not getting this consumer good back online faster. That would be socialism.

Nailed it.

Payouts to dead baby families & fines are less expensive than keeping a factory clean. And likely are deductible operating expenses.

Gibby is only half right: it’s greedy corporations behind the formula shortage, but they’ve been laughing all the way to the bank not acting like big babies. “Babies are not seen as profitable” I believe was the quote for why this wasn’t fixed LAST YEAR when they had the chance, and did one of several stock buyback programs instead.

Primarily Abbot foot-dragging on the sanitary corrections to their manufacturing plant while they oppose accepting responsibility for contamination in court against the FDA. Not responsible adult behavior.
