Yep.
Think about this: the exact same medications, manufactured by the same companies, in the same factories are all available in Canada, Europe, Australia and Japan for a fraction of the price that the American people pay. And why? Because of Big Pharma's greed. Time to end it.

Absolutely ... Time to end this ... why should the American People have to pay higher drug prices than anyone else!
Replying to @marwilliamson
It's not that simple. US big pharma spends billions on drug development. These countries ride our coattails but have limited access.

Lowering the prices on certain drugs is a short term band aid. These corporations need to be broken up and regulated. Lower the cost of insulin and the price of another unregulated drug(s) goes up to compensate.

I would love to watch a cable news segment about how much we pay for meds compared to Canada. I assume billions in advertising prevents that.

I mean, I read somewhere that the flu vaccine goes for $40 on average in the US. It's 6-10 euros in France.

Well, this is totally normal and not at all a conflict of interest

It’s because of patents
