Certainly better than anything the Republicans are offering, considering that every one of them voted against ANY reduction in drug prices. Having said that, the cap should be as close to zero as possible, as it is in other countries. And for everyone not only those on Medicare

Starting in January, we’re capping the cost of insulin for seniors on Medicare at $35 a month. That’s more money at the end of the month to pay for groceries, to get your car repaired, to put toward holiday shopping for your grandkids.

How about abolishing patents on all Pharmaceutical and healthcare drugs and devices and let the free market compete and provide the best service at the best price.

Biden could do executive order for *everyone+*- He could’ve done it day 1. D’s do it this way so they can deflect the blame on R’s and still get their own paychecks from big Pharma, while looking like they’re heroes for “trying”. Lower rx prices hurts D’s pockets just as much

Better yet, we should nationalize production of insulin and make it free at the point of service.

Real healthcare would be dealing with the type two diabetes/obesity pandemic rather than facilitating a thoughtless treatment of symptoms exacerbating the problem Teach Health to the seniors, active lifestyles and the need for insulin goes away

Money in Americans minds is the God of all gods. Until you change that and make money worthless you’re a doomed empire. The unfortunate thing is you will drag the rest of the world down with you.
Replying to @marwilliamson
Yes ... I agree ... it should be capped for everyone ... not just people on Medicare!

They tried that, the republicans stopped them

This was Trump, and he's taking credit for it. People aren't stupid. As far as Republicans voting against it, Democrats are unable to create a standalone bill- always packed with pork.
