Trump claims he is reducing the cost of drugs by 200%, 500% and in one case 1,500%

Let’s take a drug that cost $100

I’ll take a 75% reduction and pay $25

Better yet, reduce that by 100% and i get it for free.

Do i get the drug for free and get a refund for anything over 100% reduction.

We all should hope our Dr prescribes us any drugs reduced by more than 100% so we can pocket $$$$$$$.

The entire system is built on creating artificial scarcity and protectionism.

We should have an intelligence test before allowing people to post on this board.

Let's talk about the need for drugs.

Probably 85% of what is prescribed could be avoided by eating right, being at ideal weight, exercise, no smoking.

For those people, drug prices are jimmy crack corn.

Hopefully you get a nice discount on your hormone medications. Its crazy how much the medical industry is fleecing you guys with all the trans medications and surgeries.

It’s just jargon.


If I reduce costs 1 year by 1% and the next year by 3%.

That change from one year to the next is 200%.

I have a family member that has to have a life saving drug. Meds cost her over $450 (the last time they purchased them in the USA) for a 2 week supply.

She now pays $144 plus a $30 shipping fee and orders it from a foreign country... And it's a 90 day supply.

People do not really understand until they are faced with certain things that are life and death.

The American people have been paying for the world to have low cost drugs.

So nobody can explain what the cost would be if a particular medicine that cost $100 is reduced by 200%.

Why do you feel like you are entitled “free” medicine? I understand reducing cost but to want it free is very commie of you.

What else do you think you are entitled to for “free”? Gas? Housing? Food? Other people’s labor?

Seriously? Wouldn’t that be a 4% reduction?
