Dems always trying to regulate cost, just let the free market decide. ppl should stop complaining, stop begging for handouts from the government

In general, I agree with you.
Unfortunately, drug costs and pricing are as far away from a free market as you can possibly get.

Because Trump had it under control, but Biden reversed the EO day one

Because unfortunately the free market is no longer free and hasn't been for a while.
Greed has corrupted the free market.

No no no! YOU can't import anything because it might not be safe. But Big Pharma can import whatever they want. They're allowed to save a buck.

Because republicans campaigned on lowering insulin cost because of how obese society is and diabetes is on the climb

The free market is a just place, when it's truly free. What if one company controls the entire supply of a product?
Look no further to the baby shortage formula crisis to see what happens.
Do you want insulin production shut down because one company has problems??

because they have a monopoly protected by democrat laws pharmaceutical lobbyists help create that allow them to price it so if you need insulin its $800-$1200 a month it costs you and you cannot live without it.
also 90% of insurance carriers DO NOT COVER insulin in any drug plan because it costs so much, so its all 100% out of pocket from the patient if you need it.

Why do you hate free enterprise though?

Also because insurance is there because it is supposed to protect you if you need something you can't afford. They aren't doing that so why the hell do we need insurance?
It's right there in the fricking name! It should make sure I get care if I can't afford it!

Be a type 1 diabetic and have a bottle of insulin cost you $1,000 a month. Then figure don't buy it because you need money to live and go into a diabetic coma cause you can't afford your medicine or buy your medicine and can't afford to pay bills and by groceries, pass out and die because of low blood sugar because you took your medicine and when your blood sugar bottomed out you didn't have something to eat.
Why not research a little before asking a question that insults people. Google is your friend

Apparently you do not need it as I do. Tell you what, next time I cant afford it for myself or my children, I will just show up to your house and take everything you have, pawn it, and get my insulin. That is what it will be coming to. Insulin production process is cheap. Prices high. Big Pharma is raping the country on prices of drugs that are life saving.
I advise everyone to just start stealing and robbing to get the meds they need. Screw the law. At least in prison you will get it free.

Why should anyone subsidize your unlucky or bad health ailments?

We’ve basically come to a point where we don’t negotiate price. Insulin cost the most in the US. It’s not a free market when our bordering countries are getting it for much less. Obviously something is wrong.

Well shite I figured maybe the government would want to help someone live in order to pay those taxes.
We subsize women to be hoes and then pay for section 8 housing and food stamps in addition to Healthcare. We technically suba pedophile to live in a big arse white house on 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, subsize his gas, limo, chopper and jet in addition to a zillion other things.
Why should I have to subsize those?
