Republicans offer no relief at all, while Democrats are bragging that they achieved a $35/mo cap on insulin for those over 65. Okay, let’s break that down. That would still be $420 a year, and half of America’s seniors live on less than $25,000 a year. There are over 3 million insulin users over age 65, so if you multiply the 3 million by $420 that’s still a sweet profit for the pharmaceutical companies each year. And the situation gets worse. There are another over 5 million Americans needing insulin who are UNDER 65. Many are rationing their insulin, choosing on any given month whether to buy their insulin or pay their rent. This does not happen in countries where there is universal healthcare…which includes every advanced democracy except ours. What kind of “free market”leaves millions of people living their lives imprisoned behind the invisible walls of economic hardship? Millions of Americans have been trained to expect too little, numbed by a chronic, gnawing state of low-grade need to simply accept what they are given. They receive so little, and deserve so much more. #MedicareForAll (Gee, I wonder why the DNC doesn’t want to hold debates...)

The next highest price is what 12.00 Fucking democrats They should hang their heads in shame

You fail to recognize that the yearly amount is the number 420. You can't argue against 420, even if other numbers are cheaper! The Dems did dirty by choosing it because the only possible counter is a yearly cap of $69 🤔

Guess what people had $400/mo more under Trump, before Biden’s highest inflation in 40 years. That can’t be offset by $35.

Insulin dependent T2 diabetics who can't afford the consequence of their choices should be allowed to die from their disease.
