This is immoral and obscene.
Drug makers sued Minnesota over a law requiring them to give low-cost insulin to people who can't afford it. 1 in 4 diabetics ration insulin due to skyrocketing cost. The law is named after Alec Smith, who died after rationing his insulin because he couldn't pay $1,300/month.

Completely! I’m diabetic myself and currently have a host of complications and I understand where Alec was coming from, insulin was probably the MOST expensive prescription I had to get. Even with insurance, fortunately that price is a bit more manageable now, for me at least.

There is a problem with pharmaceuticals AND with health insurance drug coverage. Medicare expects the elderly and disabled to be able to handle up to $500. / mo in drug expenses before we get catastrophic coverage.
And it's so cheap in Canada😭😭😭
