They can buy it or not. Or their insurers. We'll sink or swim. What is it worth to you, if you are dying?
Do you want me to applaud coerced protectionism, so that I can make a profit? No, thanks. If the $120,000 a year longshoreman gets one, somebody is going to pay. Not him, apparently.
No government grants or loans funded us. That is why we will succeed, where others have failed.
We are greedy, non-union capitalists, and are creating life-saving technology from our brains. Why? Because we want to get rich.
And in return, people will live longer.
Fair trade?

What, exactly, is it that you do that will allow me further breath?

No, not fair trade. Every purchase of any hospital equipment or medical device is taxpayer funded due to the grants and loans that state, federal, and local governments infuse into the health care system at every level. If you are working on borrowed money from almost any savings institution part of it is union money. If you went to public school or college you can bet that those grants and loans you used and the school systems you attended were funded by union members taxes. The infrastructure that you depend on to have a viable business was built and is run mostly by union labor. And last ,but not least, the entire defense industry which builds the products that keep all sorts of bad guys away and allows your business to exist unmolested from tyranny is built by union labor. So every time you see an F-15 or a B-2 just pounding the hell out of the people killing your countrymen just remember who built it.
