As an example, I read today that 90 percent of new medicines are produced under capitalism*, whereas probably 95 percent of the people in the word (everyone except the really rich) would say that a socialist medical system is superior to a capitalist medical system. Yet socialist medical systems only produce about 10 percent of new medicines.

The journalist could be a liar, I did not check his "fact."
so as someone who is about to vote for whether a socialist medical system is better than a capitalist,

should i vote for
A) the country that produced the drug i need but wouldn't give it to me
or
B) the country that didn't produce shit but is giving me the drug i need

?
