Supposedly a guy from Pennsylvania bringing back a bunch for family and friends.

I’m going to say he is violating alcohol transportation laws in multiple states. I remember when Heddy Topper was at its height of popularity and you could only get limited amounts, there was a lawyer in Burlington who tried to sell a case on Craig’s List. The Department of Liquor Control had a little talk with her. She was and maybe still is a staff attorney for the State board that regulates utilities. She also applied to work in my unit at the Attorney General’s Office. We did not hire her. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big corporations, certain extremely wealthy foundations/individuals, various UN agencies and NGOs, govt agencies operating independently of any election are some examples. Being suspicious of these insanely wealthy/powerful groups and people who are totally untouchable through normal political processes does not make you a conspiracy theorist. A big dose of skepticism towards what the man on the TV is saying would do a lot of people a lot of good. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TreeHouse is great and we loaded up on them but there are other beers that are as good or better. I am even more impressed with the non-IPAs from Tree House than I am with their IPAs. The lagers are spectacular! and reasonably priced. Headed to True West in Acton tomorrow. Heard good things about them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually do have a friend of a friend here in PA who makes the trip up every so often and purchases thousands of dollars worth of stuff, some of which eventually finds its way to my beer fridge... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think at face value it’s a little shocking to see those types of beer purchases but it evens out pretty quickly if you’re buying for two or three friends and family etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I know who had Pfizer (myself included) had severe side effects. I do t think it has much to do with brand. I had Moderna and it was not zero, but minimal.

Get your news from a source other than Barron's I don't know what to tell you. Pharma is not a non profit. Some companies have done some shitty stuff over the years and we pay for it through public perception. And by the way, people can put some of the blame for high drug prices on hospitals and clinical institutions as well. Why do you (not you per se but the royal you)think drugs cost so much? The average clinical trial cost ~$50,000 per patient. That’s paid directly to the hospital or clinic running the trial by the sponsoring pharma company. Clinical trials are outrageously expensive. My lab disposable/reagent budget runs $70,000 a month. And I only have 6 FTE in the lab. Science cost a LOT of money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really just got tired of our self appointed philosopher in chief ruminating on how the world is doomed because people (not him) are too dumb to interpret the news for themselves, blaming smart phones for the coming apocalypse etc etc ad nauseam. While he clearly only read the headline, not sure he even skimmed the article but if so clearly didn’t understand it, and failed to contextualize the source (Barron’s). But none of that stopped him from posting 5000 words on the subject. That’s why I stepped on his throat there- not to defend pharma as a whole.
