I have a solution, and it is called more government. /sarcasm

Government creates problems because of overregulation or problematic policies, and the solution they come up with is more government involvement. Some politicians represent government rather than their constituents. This is true on both sides of the aisle, though in my opinion the Left has far more of them than the Right. Besides, the Right is ideologically opposed to more government as the solution to any problem.

The title is very misleading.

Do the Democrats wonder why America buys vaccines from Europe?

Do the Democrats understand why DoD funds a lot of Canadian Biotech companies to do research on drugs that would benefit America in war or due to a pandemic?

To me, it's a logical approach in an attorney regulated drug industry.

"There's no secrecy involved in BARDA," Heye said. "That is absolutely false. This is an agency that will be putting out information daily."

For some reason this evokes a mental image of Baghdad Bob.

See, you idiot citizens, there are no secrets because we will tell you everything that we think you need to know. Now move along!
