The title is phrased a little weird though, as if Ukraine is to be blamed for this cluster fuck of a situation.

How does an Austrian-alps-cows-charge-hiker story end up in the Free Malaysia Today?

Why did you switch up the title?
That might also help a tad.
My guess is it has something to do with the already exorbitant healthcare costs Americans are making (causing the asked price not to be an outlier) in combination with the obesity epidemic going on in the country.
Gotta love the invisible hand of the free market.
That’s not flying, that’s just falling with style.
Except that the download numbers don’t correspond at all with the population numbers.
Huh, I thought I recently read China accused the US of tricking China into invading Taiwan but that they won’t take the bait.
I guess this is what ‘not taking the bait’ translates to in Chinese?
Surely they can’t both be true at the same time though, right? Either governments are rightfully not participating in a price-gouging racket, or they are cheapskates not willing to pay pharma companies.
Unless you bring a solution to the table, taking the position that it isn’t impossible is just cheap contrarianism on your part. Sure we can try new things, but if it doesn’t work and everyone is commenting the approach isn’t helping, then maybe take the hint. Or not, and keep swimming against the stream (in which - seeing OP’s other comments - they seem to be more interested than actually solving the problem)
If someone is trying to achieve a goal through (what they might not know are) impossible means, “letting them be” isn’t going to help them.
Although it might not seem very helpful (and indeed there are better ways of helping) pointing out the flaws in the approach is contributing more than “letting them be”. Doesn’t cost a thing to be civil about it though.
Well obviously they’re an expert in nameology.
