This is not surprising. Poor people cannot afford drugs, and drug companies make investments that yield the highest returns  (Surprising Quotes) It is not surprising that liberals believed in progress. The idea of progress justified the entire transition from feudalism to capitalism. It legitimated the breaking of the remaining opposition to the commodification of everything, and it tended to wipe away all the negatives of capitalism on the grounds that the benefits outweighed, by far, the harm  (Surprising Quotes) The more the climate is forced to change, the more likely it is to hit some unforeseen threshold that can trigger quite fast, surprising and perhaps unpleasant changes  (Surprising Quotes) Cut through the ridicule and search for factual information in most of the skeptical commentary and one is usually left with nothing.
