Heh, you think those rules were real and not just artificial scarcity used to prop up the price tag?

[–] WhoIzDisIz@lemmy.today 3 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

There was no (direct) price tag in this instance. I'm sure we paid significantly for it through taxes, but how do you put a value on millions of lives?
Yes, those rules were real, and had been in place for quite some time. They were actually somewhat pared back for this issue.

Rules aren't real if they're only real for you.

[–] WhoIzDisIz@lemmy.today 3 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

They were real for most everybody, with a path to exceptions in place for cases where it was a potential last ditch method of saving someone's life. Trump's treatment seemed to have bypassed even that process, but given the time constraints it was understandable.

Are we done with the inane & irrelevant arguments now?

Clearly not, you're still talking.

I think you're just too poor and American to understand.

I think you're just too poor

Wow, eurotrash gloating about the 20€ in their bank account. How European

Probably.
