Maybe, and also be a drag on the overall economy (by being unproductive). Why would you ever think that harming people could potentially be good for the economy? It makes absolutely no sense.

Sorry, bad wording on my part. There is no way I'd ever think harming people could be good. For the economy, or otherwise.

I'm just pointing out that some people over the years have presented a very cynical view of US drug company leadership, and the way they influence things for their personal benefit regardless of human cost. :(

eg: Purdue Pharma (apparently owned by the "Sackler" family)"
