    “If it weren’t for capitalism you wouldn’t have adderall to take!” 1 long ass word for you, liberal; Methylphenylpiracetam, a spin-off of the Soviet-made Piracetam medication which was used for a litany of aliments and for various effects that today we compare to ADHD and it’s treatment, as well as depression, anxiety, and dementia (it is a cognitive enhancer). It can also counteract Scopolomine poisoning, for those who live in South America I understand this is a problem down there.

    Regardless though, I suspect this is once again the “never capitalism v capitalism and then socialism” confusion and not an argument of which system can create what.

    And lastly, capitalism giveth, capitalism taketh away. Yes amphetamines were created under capitalism (specifically social democracy in Wiemar Germany IIRC), but it’s due to the failures and crisis of capitalism today as to why these medicines are not available. Social planning would ensure enough adderall for all without allowing the market or it’s beneficiaries to seep and leech resources away from human necessity.
