And a terrible week for Democrats, no more mutilating children and now cheaper drug prices. But, but he renamed the Kennedy Center after himself!

Not being gouged by pharmaceutical companies is hardly socialism!

Due to threats of government action if they don't. That is socialism.
If you want to lower medical prices, get government out of it.
You're literally making the arguments communists make as the government takes control of things. Blame the farmers, blame the providers, etc.

Yep. The baws are going apeshit on me in the other thread for calling for market based solutions.
These are not conservatives, and they have never been conservative.

You can call it socialism, but it's pretty Goddamn ridiculous that pharmaceutical companies charge $0.10 for a pill in a 3rd world country and they turn around and charge Americans $400 for the same pill.

How is it far that the US pays for all the R&D, offers it next to nothing overseas and we foot the bill?

Judge Boasberg just filled an injunction halting all lowering of drug prices.

Idiotic regulations and insurance companies.
Most Americans are unphased by drug cost which is why they keep spiraling.
My cancer drugs were astronomical, north of 10k per month but i paid $10 a month, so it wasnt a big deal.

It is ridiculous.
But that doesn't mean this is the solution. More government for a government created problem is dumb.
It's like people claiming grocery prices are too high, so we need government to control them etc.
It's socialism. As a conservative I 100% oppose this no matter who is pushing it.

First, sorry you had to go through that.
Second. wouldn't health insurance be cheaper overall if they didn't have to pay the 10k a month?

Sure. But do you really want the govt to be the arbitrator and enforcer?

Such BS. Man pick up a frickin book and read. Unless you believe we are and have always been a socialist nation, you can not rectify you belief to our history.

Good. Most modern conservatives have called themselves "classically liberal."

I don't give a frick who agrees or disagrees. These things have definitions.
If you are wanting to get government involved over the free market, then you are asking for socialism.
And you can frick right off with all the other leftist as far as I'm concerned.

We subsidize the rest of the world’s medicine. That’s your socialism.

The main story is that Trump reinvented math by claiming he lowered prices by as much as 600%!

Ok, so change that rather than adding in more socialism.

The fact you think people who want less government intervention are socialists goes to highlight your complete ignorance on civics in general.

Of course it is because you people are full of shite.
You don’t actually want lower prices.
