    “I can finally walk, but I really enjoy the bold rich flavor of PrimeCorp nutrition bar.”

        Yeah, everyone would. PrimeCorp stock would go through the roof, not least of all because of their delicious nutrition bars. So much value would be delivered to the shareholders, can you imagine it!?

          Who gives a shit if I could walk again. I wouldn’t care who’s profiting off of it.

          This is frankly a ridiculous position.

          Let’s not allow people to walk as someone might make money. The horror.

            It’s not that serious, we’re just cracking jokes on the internet. Of course we’d all pick walking, even if we suddenly got an insatiable hunger for delicious, satisfying PrimeCorp nutrition bars. The nutrition bar with legs!

        Do you think someone in a wheelchair so much lesser a person that you automatically assume free access to their brain is adequate payment for legs? People who can’t walk still have lives, and agency, and choices. This would be a choice, for everyone. You would choose walking because you’ve never had to compensate for losing it.

          I’d 100% give it to get rid of my physical disabilities.

          I also did specify paralyzed from the neck down which I assume gives people less agency.
