Talking point from the media: Trump is messing with free markets?

Is Trump going to make the commies defend Capitalism??

But it is going to be an EO, so expect BoASSberg to rule it unconstitutional

Eh. This won’t work. It’s a good story though.

Some tilting of the market is in order. But we can’t get a month’s supply of amoxicillin for the same price as the dispensing fee at a US pharmacy. And that’s what it is in parts of the world.

And just like that the left was against lowering prescription drug prices.

I can already tell you the retorts the left will be having.

Oh the right wants prices controls now?

What happened to companies setting their own prices?

These drug companies need to pay for their research costs somehow.

How soon will some District Court Judge implement a TRO? Bet that Boasang dude has been burning up phone lines with liberal lawyers already shopping it.

Do the Democrats want to be known as the party who are against low drug prices, though? I mean, they're dumb, but that's one hell of a talking point because everyone deals with it.

I'm not going to say it won't work because I don't know how it is supposed to work. Normally government controls this stuff through subsidies. What are the other options?

All I know is that Mama BFIV's oral cancer meds cost $22,000 for a three week supply. Chemo is right up there with that. I don't know why it is so expensive and I have no idea what it costs in other countries.

I don't really care for most of Trump's hyper nonsense, but Most Favored Nation Pricing is an actual thing and has rarely been used for prescription drugs. It's a policy for contracting for, on behalf, etc. the United States Government.

Medicare drug rebate pricing is usually negotiated separately.

I don't see how he applies Most Favored Nation clauses to the wider market unless he is going to unleash Medicare and use it to bludgeon the market into submission.

I don’t know but look at the other hills the Dems have chosen to die on since DJT was sworn in not even 4 months ago.

In that light, I wouldn’t put anything past these modern Dem-Socialists.

Don't Beloit for one minute. Trump is turning out to be King Saul like in the Bible.

This may be #148, I'm not sure. He's issued another EO with similar language recently. So, it is hard to keep up. If it is #148, he currently already has numbers 149, 150, and 151 on deck waiting until some time to be signed.
