Editor's Note: My edits were all made to keep the video on one, central topic by editing together relevant commentary from many parts of Hasan's streams to create a storyline that is still followable by the viewer. I also edited in commentary of my own in places, in addition to relevant external information that improves the viewing experience. A lot of edits were made for comedy purposes, or to enhance the comedic timing of certain beats, but never to misrepresent Hasan's point of view.

As someone who’s dad died because they couldn’t afford lung cancer treatment, it’s just sad to believe that people would still argue for big pharma
damn, i'm so sorry. i can't even imagine how awful that must be. it's enraging that any person would be denied life-saving care because they can't afford it. absolutely inhumane and heartless
No man should ever have to lose his house trying to keep his wife from dying of cancer
Jonas Salk refused to patent the polio vaccine. When asked why, he responded, "Could you patent the sun?". Got the quote tattooed last month
The people who created insulin sold the patent for 1 dollar, thinking it would make it accessible to eveyone. Man, we're they completely wrong for doing that.

*Deletes 1000 word essay*
Ben is a 🦤
I remember once seeing this PSA years ago where 6 kids are in school & during lunch 1 of them has no food so a kid that brought their lunch gave the boy some chips. The PSA was about how roughly 1 in 6 kids in The U.S. face poverty in that they go hungry & for many lunch at school may be the only meal they get a day. So, this is why it's so important for programs like SNAP to remain in place to ensure we prevent actual living children from going hungry in The U.S.
Yeah but then again, conservatives think that that 1 kid should be taken away from their parents until they learn to pull themselves up by their bootstraps.
The most messed up thing is that tax dollars already pay a lot for the kid to go to a public school, why be assholes and not cover the few extra dollars for them to have a free lunch. As tax payers, paying a few extra 20-30 dollars a year to make sure students can eat at school is worth it. How would people expect a kid to learn when he's hungry during class. The government cares for high test scores, give the kids lunch and breakfast, they'll perform better.
Uhhhh don't you get it? That hungry bozo kid just needs to pull himself up by his bootstraps
But have you considered that the parents shouldn't have had kids if they are too poor to feed them and that it's thusly just and moral to punish the kids with hunger?
Checkmate libtardz
I remember that psa.. Our country been fuct for a long time
Being obsessed with "life isn't fair" is a full time job. It takes a lot of effort to ignore the fact that we could easily give people everything they need to live for free. Talking the essentials here. Food. Medicine. Housing. Free. Is that socialism? Yes. I'd wager socializing those things would actually boost capitalism. Since ya know... instead of struggling all the time. People could now afford to spend on everything else.
I think that’s what I’ve been thinking as of lately, every resource is essential “free” it’s literally all here on earth, regardless if we pay for it or not, they are still doing the work to get those resources, to built those house to distribute all the food. This government/world is a hell hole that just want to profit of every single person here.
Sorry if doesn’t make sense, i can’t seem to explain my thoughts into words lol. But I agree with you, everyone can literally live for free, have food for free as well.
You have a weird idea of wages.
@christian2i strange no matter how many yatchs the ceos buy with their very high wages, the economy survives.
Socialism just needs rebranding as "freedom stimulus packages to boost the economy" and everybody would eat it up
No they wouldn’t, the money they spend on taxes would be significantly increased causing less spending.
what was SO radicalizing for me was being diagnosed with a chronic illness that *requires* a long term biologic. each dose would have cost thousands of dollars, and thank god I had health insurance otherwise I don’t know what I would have done. after my dad lost his job I was really worried about whether our next health insurance would cover my meds. luckily everything is taken care of and I’m doing well, but thinking about how there are people out there like me who may not have had the money to ever be diagnosed, or if they had to afford treatment makes me feel sick bc I have experienced unimaginable amounts of pain and I’m so lucky that I have the resources to lessen it. the worry that comes with being faced with a future where I couldn’t afford my medicine (a future that is still very real) was what made me believe all medications and healthcare should be 100% free to everyone, no questions asked. people should be able to just walk into the doctor and be treated. being diagnosed with a long term condition that requires expensive medications (and expensive doctor visits and expensive hospital visits) should not feel like a death sentence.
It’s crazy because this actually happened to me.. i’m not gonna get into my diagnosissssss, But I have chronic pain due to all of the illnesses that I have. I had to quit my job and go on disability doing so I lost my insurance therefore I could not go to the doctor and get the medication’s the doctors that where prescribing me the meds nor get the meds that were working for me. It has been a long road it is now nine years since that has happened and I have still not found the same meds that actually gave me pain relief that I was having at that time. But I am very glad that you were lucky in the situation❤ Believe me I was in that situation constantly worrying that I wouldn’t be able to get the medication is that I needed😢 it is not right that this happens to people!! My heart goes out to you and hope that you are doing well ❤
Love Hasan’s ability to predict so many of the right wing talking points.
They’re just recycling old talking points, that’s the whole shtick of conservatism.
"your next line is..."
He is a psychic like showdy cody.
You'll be able to one day too. Because they just recycle them. Pick any anti-trans talking point, and you'll see they were using it against gay people 15 years ago.
@@Ihavealeftbrain Cody has a script though.
I like the sound effects on the pop up edits. I mostly listen but then I know to pick up my phone and backtrack 10 secs when I hear it
Yes. I'm so glad that I'm not alone in this.

Being wrong is Ben's expertise
@MRsjovealekim not the original poster, but for me atleast it's all about how ben argues for far-right capitalism
Speak fast, talk ass.
@MRsjovealek Dafuq?
Ben: We need to cut government spending!
Biden: We are going to negotiate drug prices and cut how much medicare has to pay for prescriptions!
Ben: NOT LIKE THAT!!1
In the Past cigarette company's would pay doctors to recommend there brand. Very good that was free market then big government added regulations so they could no longer do that, we just need more competition, more companys paying doctors the free market will fix itself
@@daraghokane4236 hahahahahaha. 🤡 “the free market will fix itself.” Hahah I’ve not seen a good jester in a while thanks for that line.
@@justinspencer983 I am pretty sure that they did not bring up doctors recommending cigarette brands as a good thing lol
@@justinspencer983I think they were being sarcastic and making fun of the free market argument haha either that or they are bafflingly dumb but I think the former
@@jacksondbrophy9 the fact that unfathomable stupidity exists makes reading people's intentions in text so hard (that said, I am more than willing to assume that they think paying doctors to promote cigarettes is a bad thing)
His own comment section is lighting him up.
As they should cuz I mean wtf is this??? Man’s lied 3 times in a row CONFIDENTLY
Listening to Hasan hate-fuck Ben with his articulate vocab and wise political views is my favorite thing.
Wise political views😂😂😂😂
just wanna say you are far and wide the best fan channel, always appreciate the level of effort you put into editing and cleaning up the vods
Ben clearly has no idea about the NHS. Or, worse, he just wants to lie.
It’s the second one
it is permanently the 2nd one, it's his entire reason for being.
"Hypothetically, let's say that... uh... it would be much harder for me to tell the truth if I actually told the truth. Obviously I don't need to tell the... uh- actual truth as long as what I say feels true to the people who want to believe it's true. That's why I craft new parallel universes to talk about what I want to talk about every time I open my mouth."
- Ben Shapiro, probably.
On a side note, am I the only person who thinks he's going ushaven lately to avoid comparisons to Brett Cooper?
Dude, shapiro is a smart guy, dont doubt that. He is selling lies. He knows what he's doing.That'ss what makes him so horrible. Somebody like Mike Pilloww are the ones that dont know what they are doing. They should be pitied.
@@vetreas366RM Brown on RUclips calls her Gwen Shapiro. He very well could be!
Saying big pharma invented medicines is like saying the manager of a pro sports team won the game. Or more appropriately like saying that the owner of the dog won the dogfight.
At 39, I've realized my fetish is Hasan Piker crapping on Ben Shapiro
Absolutely floored me when he pulled up the comments section. I hadn't actually expected Ben's commenters to react so poorly to his talking points. Gave me hope
We need Medicare-For-All in The United States! What's more "pro-life" then ensuring everyone living here has guaranteed affordable healthcare regardless of their job? If we all had access to healthcare, we would have the "freedom" to live long lives without having to worry about medical bankruptcies. Taxes will go up, but overall medical bills will go down. If some of us need additional healthcare, then we have the "choice" to purchase private insurance. If every other developed country (Canada, Germany, United Kingdom, France, Italy, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Finland, Netherlands, Switzerland, Israel, Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong, Singapore, Australia, & New Zealand) can implement this system & save money, then why can't The United States do the same to help "Make America Great Again" for everyone when it comes to healthcare? & If people in The United States die from lacking access to affordable health insurance then we are failing our country's promise of defending "life, liberty, & the pursuit of happiness" for its citizens as well as "promoting the general welfare" of everyone living here.
As a Canadian its so hard to understand how you live without covered health care. So unfair. We may have to wait a bit but we get it and don't loose our house.
Answer: "Pro-life" is only a talking point because of the potential of the unborn human, not the actual life itself. An unborn child can keep the gears turning in the industrial capitalist cogs. Older and retired people are akin to broken cogs. They're replaceable. Same with dead soldiers and why we don't have a mandatory draft. Unborn babies become working class citizens, and fodder soldiers for war. Economically, big Pharma can squeeze more money out of citizens who (actually have a heart) care about the elderly because they don't want loved ones to pass on. Anyone can have a comfortable life in USA, but it ain't free. Citizens are treated like a commodity while not directly or explicitly saying so.
“Pro-Lifer’s” are only pro life when about it’s the kiddos their trying diddle!
The UK healthcare system is on its arse. Junior Doctors have seen their pay drop in real terms by 26%. People are left on trolleys for days waiting on beds. The waiting lists by to see specialists is extremely long.
By all means support a socialised system. But you should research the reality of the issues socialised systems face rather than act like it's a perfect alternative
@@syrasmineplus like thats just more people pooling in money 😭
I mean, as someone who works in industrial as a medicinal chemist, id argue that the heart of the issue with pharma companies, as always, stems from the upper management (CEO, CFO, etc.) and their work with lobbyists. All of those i work with directly contribute to the screening, sybthesis, and optimization of potential drug candidates and accompany the tracking of that compound from synthesis through clinical trials. And unfortunately even in the academic setting, while the research being done there is incredible (i spent 3.5 years in a chemistry graduate program working on three different projects that were all government funded), many of the discoveries made as it pertains to specific compounds or natural products are more often than not dome through collaborations with industry and anything developed by anyone at a university is proprietary information that belongs to the university itself so if anything ever comes out of it it always goes back to the scjools but no guarantee that money will be put back into research (ask any PI/research group leader and theyll tell you like 60% of their time is spent applying for grabts for funding).
It is the problem in every university and corporation. From your professor to your CEO and investors, they are fucking useless at actually doing the work, and they know it. They would do anything to keep their gravy train going.
@@lecongvu1997 I wouldn't lump on professors in the same way. Some are money hungry but you don't stay in academia if you don't truly love the work And scientific discovery that you can do.
as someone who’s read a little bit of marx, as soon as you say “competition! bourgeois democracy!” in this way, the ceos and lobbyists will eventually develop into the current state, just by rational “this is how we continue to exist” logic. Self propagation in an environment where money and its power is sacred leads directly to our current predicament and the “greed” of the upper management.
Are you telling me Ben Shapiro is lying? Not sure how my world view can handle this.
Ben - “We need to reduce government spending!”
Biden - “Ok cool, we’re going to negotiate cheaper prices for drugs and spend less money”
Ben - “No, not like that”
Another sad part of this story is that the researchers that work in the academic institutions who’s research propels this innovation are often underpaid. At the moment, labs in academia are having a hard time getting post-docs. The post-docs they do get are often international so they are at a disadvantage because their visa depends on their employment.

Great job with the video. As a Canadian weirdly interested in American politics and economy stuff, you do a great job explaining why Ben is wrong. Really informative.
I'm also a Canadian who pays attention to US politics. All the twists and turns, the character arcs and drama. It's like watching a soap opera lol.
@@rileymachelle4088The writers have been really going crazy, but I need some filler episodes or something. It's tiring being in the show.

Healthcare is really the issue where you find out if someone is for the people or for the corporations
To use an Hasan quote as my response to Mr. Bennyben Shapiro and his antics in this video:
"What a weasely little liar dude" 😂
your little editorial popups in the corner never fail to make me laugh. plus you keeping in the good top of the hour segues gets me every time
20 minutes in. And he’s been wrong 7 times
That's funny.
Around the 40 minute mark hasan makes an off-hand comment about how Ben has been wrong for 13 times.
No mention of Ben is complete without "...fucking Aquaman?"
ben is just saying things huh? throwing out mad hypotheticals like its fact
Why the hell would I trust someone who's investing in pharmaceutical companies?!
Thanks for this -- Hasan outlined a lot I hadn't known.
Im sorry to go off topic, but Mitch McConnell froze in front of a podium again. I cannot wait to hear hasans commentary on it lol. The dude clearly has dementia and needs to get out of politics all together.
Just for the record your dealer didn't develop anything drug related
Ben's beard makes him look like he just has chocolate pudding all over his face
i love ur little inputs it’s so funny
I can’t believe he actually said ass cancer and dick cancer… it’s half 1 in the morning and I had to stop myself bursting out laughing 😂
Incomprehensibly common Ben L
One of the funnier points brought up. So Shapiro says "no one would EVER do anything (like medical research) without a payout", but then says they supply drugs to other countries at below-profit prices. Why would they ever sell in countries that make zero profit, unless... 1) they do things without a payout, which violates his first argument, or 2) they do make profit. So it violates his second point.
I would personally get an enormous amount of enjoyment from Deathnoting Ben Shapiro
What would his method of death be?
@@demonicloaf2100heart attack, don’t give it thought he doesnt deserve that much attention on the method(im not saying I would deathnote him but if he got deathnoted I wouldnt be sad or mad)
Ben thinks the only country that develops medication is the US... WTF...
Part-time researcher at a research/teaching hospital while I get my undergraduate degree. The amount of money I make can’t even pay for my asthma medication after insurance. The fact that I am working (and studying so that I can get a PhD to work) so that I can help advance medical knowledge while I can’t even pay for my meds for something I was born with is absolutely insane. This is exactly why I refuse to work for a pharmaceutical company and I will only work for places that are publicly funded - I refuse to sell my soul for a higher paycheck
28:48
Actually that's not the most common reason. Often big pharma makes backroom deals with smaller ones so that they won't make generic version in exchange for a slice of the profit for the price gauged ones. This is called pay-for-delay. It is illegal in the EU, recently there was a major push to allow it but it was struck down.
44:12
He didn't say "Trust me."
He said "I promise you."
Same shit
good work ratioing productions 😎
it literally only sounds bad because he's saying "cram down" i hate this
i had no idea big pharma was THIS bad i knew it was bad but like. spending research and development money solely on increasing profit rather than improving the drug? wtf? i hate rich people
Privatized health care moment
The drug price negotiation bill is a rare brandon W
Price gouging of pharmaceutical drugs already makes no sense to me; if you as a company charge medications so much that many potential customers can't afford them, then how are you going to make money off those medications in the long-term with only the wealthy top percentage of the population being able to afford them? Personally, I feel the federal government needs to have some form of price control to ensure that we don't pay an absurd amount for prescriptions compared to other developed countries. If a bottle of pills in say Germany costs $6.00, that same bottle of pills shouldn't cost more then 50% extra here in the U.S., which would be $9.00 in this case. I'm not saying pharmaceutical companies don't deserve to make profit for their research & development, but they shouldn't be able to charge insane prices for their life saving products that most uninsured Americans can't afford.
Realistically they're charging that amount to insurance companies or Medicare/Medicaid and the company pays them and you basically pay the insurance company. We're the only people losing and left feeling cheated. Many other countries as we know have socialized healthcare to at least some functional extent and that makes it harder for these companies to rip people off. There's a steroid ointment I need for eczema that costs me $20 in the US but I could buy 3 of the same sized bottle over the counter in Brazil with that. It's incredibly fucked
Germany has a massive pharma industry of it's own. Medicine is actually the single most profitable export of the EU so they actually aren't dependent on American medicine. The successful covid vaccine was made in Germany, not the US.
Yeah the biologics is especially scummy. $64,000/yr for the cheapest biologic, that I would have tp take for the rest of my life if I start it, so I can't even use a clinical trial to benefit from. I don't even make half of that money in a year of full time work. And there won't be any generics, I've been waiting for years and they keep updating it.
would love to see ben do a vid on hasan "proving him wrong" lmaoo be sick content
He'd pull up a video of him in a dress, and call him a gay Marxist.

RIP
Facts don't care about your feelings, but Ben Shapiro doesn't care about facts.
Hassan Abi for president! He is one of the best, most honest and well-informed streamers
The drug negotiations is one the best things Biden has done, most republican voters support lower drug costs, Ben is trying to get his army of debate lords talking points because Biden is going to run on this and will cut party lines and he cannot let that happen
Man.. Ben Shapiro has just never been correct about *ANYTHING*, has he? 😅
How the hell does this work, like do they know there lying or do they get wrong information to begin with and do no other research?? Or do they genuinely think there right but have no data to back it up with because there wrong?? Is this purely for money??? I’m so confused with this side of the internet
Take a shot every time Ben says "cramming down". God right wingers love to just say good things in a tone that implies they are bad.
40:30
I also find it pretty crazy that you can extent patents like that in the first place. For most products if you come up with a new format you can take out a new patents but it won't extent the original patent. So if they come up with a pill that used to be taken anally and can take it orally the anal pill patent still expires at the usual time.
WTF, don't leave me alone with ben?!?!?!
*ctrl+w*
my exact reaction. I cannot STAND his voice.
And to further the point that hasan is making regarding medical innovation United States, part of the reason that were so behind is that the research the United States being federally funded in the majority of places means that if something is he legal in the United States we're not allowed to conduct active research on it. And by that I mean, we can't explore further how we can implement and utilize cannabis for the treatment of different illnesses despite the fact that it sounded extremely effective against severe kinds of epilepsy even and children, treatment for anxiety, facilitating with nausea during cancer treatments, and even helping with pain relief. But because it's federally illegal still universities and research institutions can't do any further investigation or researcher development on it. Many other countries don't have this type of limitation. I'm not quite sure what their limitations are but I do know that's the reason why they can be so innovative it's partially a result of the restrictions regarding research in that specified country.
''all meds were invented by big pharma'' guy that discovered penicillin from moldy bread is like ''wtf?''
Zurbynski's cancer cure wasn't invented by big pharma.
most drugs are developed in America, that's from one 2010 study'' is he serious right now? a decade old study. I can just imagine Ben in the 80's being like ''Disco is all the rage right now according to a study from 1971''
“Extended release” it’s a brand new drug! Or tweaking Dexedrine a little to make Adderall
52:57 wait wtf? just saw my name pop up in the chat, which means that Ben talks that much sh!t, more than me when i post 50 comments on YT, that I already watched this live oon Twitch, and then promptly forgot about it and didn't realise. lol. Thanks
Ben is a VOICECEL!!!!
Every American should see this video. Every American. Try and prove him wrong. You cant.
China develops hella “novel” compounds. Is there a bromo instead of a chloro? That’s how analogues work. Usually it’ll be just a little change so the effects remain very similar. It’s also how new fentalogues and iso derivatives are made
Hate how Biden is taking Bernie's talking points when the election season starts approaching
He should do stuff like this no matter how far election season is
13:25
I find it weird he mentioned Germany. Germany has a massive pharma industry and it's actually their main export, many associated Germany with machines and while they still have those it's actually pharma that's Germany's most profitable sector.
Boofing (rectal use) of some things actually has a huge effect on bioavailability. For example. Mdma absorbs 2x as much rectally so you’re essentially taking two doses from one. Bioavailability is very important. You mention OxyContin, one reason it was so prolific is that most people don’t wanna “inject hard drugs” so with oxy 90% is absorbed orally. Morphine? 30%. That’s why people would always IV opioids. But the development of oral and transdermal opioids makes it much easier to get addicted.
Can anyone link me the source for the Cubans-have-a-lung-cancer-vaccine-but-the-government-won’t-let-people-go-to-get-it thing? I’m very curious to read on that. Thanks
Just google “cubans have a lung cancer vaccine”. I did so and saw a bunch of articles.
What's the link to the original Ben's video? I want to read the comments there.
it’s in the discription. !
Research is incredibly expensive and unprofitable. You will never convince an investor to give you money when you say im researching something comepletely new i need tons of money to determine if it will work and btw it could possibly be not functional AT ALL. Problem is we need research and development to innovate and move society forward. Its just not possible to do cutting edge research in the private sector.
Like the internet, which would never have been brought into existence by profit-seeking enterprises looking for return on investment.
@@billyconnelly3568 the private sector laughed at the prospect of the internet for a long time before coming around
@@heated817
Contrary to what free market zealots would have us believe, the government, not profit-seeking capitalists, has been the foremost risk-taker and driver of innovation and scientific/technological advance in the US in the past 80 years.
Literally every major component of the iPhone--the internet, cellular, SIRI, GPS, and hand-held tech--was brought into existence by the federal government or with considerable support from it. Likewise, the Google algorithm was developed with government-supported research and development.
In the pharmaceutical industry, venture capitalists are much more likely to invest in launching IPO's and stock buy backs and making minor modifications to already-existing patents than in research that would drive new breakthrough therapies. They wait until government-funded research has developed new treatments, and once it has, then step in to commercialize them. Many of the most lucrative drugs put on the market each year are developed by the federal government. Approximately 75% of molecular entities patented annually by the pharmaceutical industry are developed in government-funded labs.
Indeed, biotech wouldn't exist without government subsidies and support and nanotech is almost entirely a creation of the government.
How is subsidizing pharma companies on the basis of "everybody can potentially benefit from this industry so were gonna move taxpayer dollars here to supplement the capital efforts in making this industry profitable" different from wealth distribution? How is it not, by literal definition, redistributing wealth from the community and giving it to some parts within the community?
If ppp loans didn’t pay for any lunches
my guy said it costs no where next to as much as they charge to develop the drugs, then the next minute he's saying ''they need t spend bazillions of dollars to develop these drugs'' which one is it ben? cuz obviously you would know being a medical scientist expert thats worked out all the overheads of developingsaid drugs and isnt just taking the numbers the companies give you at face value.....right?
Why is Amazon not selling or distributing pharmaceuticals?
do you think someone who essentially started off from the bookstore and then became a massive distribution and online selling platform wouldn’t monopolize into a that market? 🤔
lmao candian cancer rates are better, daym
worker safety, environmental safety, food regulations probably help extent human life. this is contrary to the notion that 'market forces' solve everything.
Capitalism exhchanged god given authority with money given authority. This just clicked to me
16:29 Ben here is just saying the same shit Meghan McCardle has said
It all depends how you look at it as well. US spend the most monetarily but if you go per capita it’s Singapore and South Korea with US being third and if you go as GDP % then it’s Israel and South Korea. Israel by a huge margin and US are 16th.
The fact people like this have major followings shows how far the American education system has declined.
his beard looks like glued on public hair
25:49 tho 💯💯💯
Ben also thinks if USA forces other countries to pay the same prices as US citizens for drugs, the companies would lower prices in the US, while in reality they would just make more profit outside the US and keep prices the same inside the US
Actually big pharma is already doing that. Drugs in Africa usually cost several times more than in Europe because those countries are not strong enough to bargain and are usually punished if they try. This caused a massive amount of anger when it came to light South-Africans have to pay 3,3 times as much for the covid vaccine as Norwegians despite Norwegians obviously being far richer. South-Africa has the capacity to make the drug itself if they were granted the patent but it was refused and caused a massive stir in the UN that went on for months as thousands of people were dying every day.
Things being cheaper in bulk still doesnt make sense, I thought capitalists treat supply and demand like it's an external law of physics, yet they break that with buying bulk for cheaper. Clearly they'll say its because it costs more to individually wrap things and so that cost is reflected in the price, but a lot of times that is arbitrary and couldnt possible be enough of a cost to operate this way (i.e., fast food deals, etc). Little do they know, they still admit that supply and demand/market mechanisms were never in charge of price controls capitulating to this explanation lol
It's so frustrating to have hassan stand up in the middle of the reaction and just wal away for two minutes while the videos still playing
he's live 8 hours a day, dummy. gotta piss sometimes
As someone hoping to one day enter the medical field and currently studying biomedical engineering at university in America, this is fucking insanity. I hope this bill/law that's been passed has a beneficial impact in the future and can help everyone get the health care they deserve. I wasn't aware of any of this stuff so I really appreciate the video; Capitalism is fucking wild.
Jesus would def be proud to live in the 21st century US and experience the feelings of the state being able to "help thy neighbour" with free healthcare, and then just not.
I vote for more publicly funded dealers & plugs
