If Pharma made airplanes there would be airplane crashes every single day and Pharma would blame the people who never fly.
Sudden Aviation Death Syndrome (SADS) would be the label used to describe those killed in the daily airplane crashes which would always be considered a coincidence.
The CDC would strongly recommend that all children fly 90 times before their 18th birthday and blue states would require proof of said flights to attend school; even if you have been in a previous crash there would be no exemptions to the mandated 90 flights.
Anderson Cooper would vilify anyone who took fewer than five flights a year.
The National Transportation Safety Board would assure us that planes have always crashed every day — it was just better awareness that made people think things had gotten worse — while doing absolutely nothing to improve airline safety.
Academics would conduct elaborate studies on “overcoming airplane crash hesitancy.”
The mainstream media would feature endless commercials for medications to treat burns and lost limbs from airplane crashes, complete with singing and dancing spokespeople who are always smiling.
Pharma would make record earnings every year because more crashes mean they need to make more planes!
Wall Street would applaud their visionary business model.
(Nota bene for anyone who thinks that this analogy is facetious: 300 children now develop autism in the United States every day, which is more than the seating capacity of the average domestic airplane flight.)

Today's assymetrical warfare: Iran's cheap munitions are taking out American's most expensive aircraft.
One internet observer:
"Iran, still using their pawns, while Israel and the US out there, with only their King n Queen left. Who will fall first?
"5 pawns and a king versus a king and queen in a chess end game, the side with the 8 pawns always wins. 5 pawns is enough. That’s standard.
"In a way, you could call it asymmetrical warfare."
Well, it's not "A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius."
It's $400,000 Bentley automobiles. A lot of them. Of all the dealerships in Europe, the one in Kiev is in third place for sheer volume.
Take note of this tragic truth:
"Foreign aid is a mechanism by which poor people in rich countries are taxed to support the lifestyles of rich people in poor countries. The aid primarily serves three Ms—: munitions, monuments, and Mercedes for leaders and cronies."
--- Peter Thomas Bauer, a Hungarian-born British development economist:
Donald Trump this morning announced that “VERY GOOD AND PRODUCTIVE CONVERSATIONS REGARDING A COMPLETE AND TOTAL RESOLUTION OF OUR HOSTILITIES IN THE MIDDLE EAST” have taken place between the U.S. and Iran over the past two days.
As a result, the president has “INSTRUCTED THE DEPARTMENT OF WAR TO POSTPONE ANY AND ALL MILITARY STRIKES AGAINST IRANIAN POWER PLANTS AND ENERGY INFRASTRUCTURE FOR A FIVE DAY PERIOD.”
