Republicans block cap on insulin costs for many Americans from Democratic deal

Republicans stripped out a provision to cap insulin costs at $35 for private insurers, but the Inflation Reduction Act still includes an insulin price cap for seniors on Medicare.

What about those people who need more than $35 worth of insulin each month? Do we not care about diabetics?
Replying to @marwilliamson
Hi as far as diabetic care goes the innovative meds hit type 2 are so very expensive as well. The technology is pretty fantastic as far as the modern insulins go. I am concerned that the bill will result in cost shifting from Medicare to commercial payors.

You meant to say " people in government that can't bring themselves to vote to cap insulin at $35 dollars a month are failing all of us."

It's a government that's filled with social Darwinists.

IF NO GOPS were in GOV; US would have given insulin for $35. Now Prs Biden might figure out how to get it to them free of charge! GOPs won't like US citizens to get insulin free either. Insulin users remember when U vote don't vote for GOPS! GOPS NEVER HELP US CITIZENS. PROOF!

What happens if the cost of producing it goes OVER $35? Just let them die?
