We will force you to have babies you can't feed and we will work to make sure that you can't feed them...'cause that's how we do things.

New motto - If we can make your life more difficult, we will.

Again - it’s not about the babies.

Honestly, what kind of a heartless, mindless fuck do you have to be to vote against allocating a pittance to keep infants from going hungry??

Of course it's not about babies, it never was and never will be.

And we know - throwing money at a problem ALWAYS fixes it..........

......


What exactly would we get for 28 million that supply and demand wouldn' t already fix? And TRY to restrain yourself from calling me an evil fucker who hates babies - give an actual answer to the question.

Right now, babies need to be fed.

A long-term fix can be looked at, and should be looked at, but right now babies are getting sick because of the formula shortage.

That is acknowledged and undisputed.

It still does not address the question - what do we get for 28 million?

A supply of formula for hungry babies.

Doesn't seem that difficult to me.

You can' t buy what isn' t there.

What are you going to spend the 28 million on?

I'm not going to argue the need for formula production to be fast-tracked with you.

Nobody is arguing.


But I am also not getting an answer to my question.


What will the 28 million ( an oddly specific sum) dollars be spent on?

What formula that is being manufactured is being bought up as fast as it is being produced - at inflated prices. There is no manufacturer induced supply side restriction. The supply side restriction was by the government - forcing a recall of formula. (We will assume it was a good recall - there is no point sidetracking on that tangent).

So how will 28 million be spent? You can' t "just buy more formula" .  There isn' t any more to buy.

You COULD loan the money to start up production facilities - but 28 million wouldn' t get much of a plant and it would be well over a year or two in building.


So please tell me what has this 28 million price tag that will solve the problem? I hate buying sight- unseen...
