Science

The problem comes from the fact most people cannot differentiate between the science side of and the industry side of pharmaceuticals. Same thing with college. The people who think "college is a scam" do not differentiate between the academics and the administrative aspects.

It all boils down to people not understanding the problem isn't the thing itself; it is the system that dictates the distribution of it and allows people of ill intent to exploit their control over its distribution for profit.

Their logic is backwards. They see "Bad People™ tell me that I need Thing© so they can exploit me for money, so Thing© must have been created by Bad People™ to exploit me, thus the thing must be a Bad Thing©" instead of seeing it as "this beneficial thing is being controlled by bad people who are exploiting people's desire for its benefits for proft."
