This explains it. Wish I had paid attention in physics class.

Really !!! I mean like it could have been given to third world countries to feed their masses rather than fund American companies and workers to develop technologies, processes and products - many of which which we now use in everyday life.

Why should we have to ?!?! They reproduce like flies. They have no farmable land. Their natural resources are exploited by big industry. Their leaders are corrupt and crapping in solid gold toilets. Not my problem !! Along comes a solution called Covid and everyone wants to send them free vaccines !!
