Reason magazine has long been the foremost practitioner of corporate libertarianism; there is no big business boot they won't lick in the name of the free market – never mind how corrupt or coercive that entity may be in reality outside of ideological tunnel-vision.
Strictly speaking, Pfizer's shareholders (vs its management) haven't profited much from covid - the stock price has been a dog, and is failing further. Moderna famously made a lot, as did other corporate pricks, but Pfizer not so much.
In the very early 80's, I was offered a free issue of Reason and subsequently became a subscriber for several years. During this time, I became a full-time volunteer in the office of a state libertarian party, where I read almost everything they had to read. I wrote two reviews of Claire Wolfe books given us by Loompanics for the state newsletter and became a weekly letter writer to a local political paper, bashing one or both of the partisan columnists every time. I went on to be one of the most successful petitioners for Dr. Ron Paul's ballot access drive for his 1988 campaign for the presidency. Shortly after becoming a subscriber to Cato, I dropped it and Reason like rocks, because they'd gone fascist. It is sad to see that they haven't learned the errors of their way. There doesn't seem to be a market for libertarian activism anymore.

Listen, I Don't Care If It's True - Or Not.
It SHOULD Be True.
