The patent for Insulin was sold for $1 by its inventor so it could be provided almost for free.

Insulin costs $2 to make in the USA.

The average price of insulin in the USA is now $1500 a month.

The reason we don't have renewable energy is because it is too cheap.

They make 400% profit on Fossil Fuel, they won't even make a tenth of that on renewable energy.

Maria Steen, she of the Holy Handbag, argues in the Times that we should introduce a form of marriage with "no possibility of divorce." Maybe she is too young to remember that we already tried this. It ended very badly for some - that's why we introduced divorce.

this is a really good, clear example of how Maria Steen – for all that we are told she is a brilliant, insightful political mind by her supporters and apologists – is actually thick as shit

not because she lacks intellect, but because her coddled life means it has withered away from lack of use

Imagine what kind of marriage abusive men would be in favour of? This isn’t a benign opinion she’s spouting off here, it’s so malicious and dangerous

I'm amazed Shakespeare is worried about the cost, considering he's willing to spend €100 million plus to move the HQ of the council from buildings that are barely 30 years old

Michael Fitzmaurice is nothing more than a thick ignorant farmer with absolutely no insight on the subject of climate change. To have him on a panel discussing it is an insult to the viewer #TonightVMTV

Matt Goodwin lives nearly 200 miles from Manchester and he hates the place.

Do you want someone like that as your MP?

I see Fine Gael are on a "give the police tasers" campaign, on the claimed basis of rising violence against police.

When we have an incident in future where a taser fails, you know exactly what FG will be calling for next.

The DC shooting story is really getting to me because we literally trained this man as a child soldier for a death squad in a forever war and Stephen Miller et al want to blame it on other cultures? It's our culture, American culture, that killed that woman.
