This vaccine shortage is right out of Ayn Rand's
Atlas Shrugged, only she used railroads, not the pharmaceutical industry, as an example of the results government meddling.
The men of the railroad and of the mine stopped in dazed bewilderment: They found that in all the complexity of their equipment, among the drills, the motors, the derricks, the delicate gauges, the ponderous floodlights beating down into the pits and ridges of a mountain there was no wire to mend the crane. They stopped, like men on an ocean liner propelled by ten-thousand-horsepower generators, but perishing for lack of a safety pin.
The Clinton/Kennedy "Childhood Immunization Initiative" must be repealed.

(The federal government will spend $21,000 per household in 2003, up from $16,000 in 1999.)

Thank you
That is what I am trying to say!
My point: Let's say there are 10 producers of the shot, (just to make this easy: I am in law school because I am terrible in math!)and the estimated need is 1000 shots. I seriously doubt that a company will only make 100 shots because they assume that the other 9 companies will make the other 900....that is faulty logic. That is not the way competition works. Hitlery is at fault, and we cannot pretend that she is not, because of the fear of blaming the precious Clintons for something devistating.
