re: President Trump Live re Drug Prices

Posted by Maddness on 5/12/25 at 1:10 pm
So the EO doesn't actually have any enforcement in it other than other countries are going to be paying more for drugs...

and then they're saying the savings are going to come to the American people on the good will of Big Pharma companies who are going to pass the savings on to us, but not forcing them to, just trusting them to, because again in the EO there's actually no enforcement of anything.


Ok. So this is nothing.
it's the actual bill. i'd rather believe my own eyes than someones words. no matter their leaning.
Not lying. you can read it yourself. Just hit ctrl+f on your keyboard and type in medicaid and enjoy:

neither of those were actually in this bill. so they didn't vote for or against it. what was in the bill though was 800 million dollars cut from Medicaid and tax breaks for the wealthy and corporations.
nah, not at all. i am just curious. Don't be so defensive.
I'd absolutely love to know what everyone here does for a living. Just to see what the most vocal people against "Freeloading" do to earn a living. I'm very curious...
I can feel Trump's energy and confidence in this rally. Dude's had 3 speakers and he's had to loop songs on youtube to fill in the gaps. This feels like winning for a rally that isn't even in a swing state. The chess moves are off the board.
this dude fall asleep or what? these old peeps are about to pass out. youtube tech is going to run out of tabs to play videos at this rate.

That's just searching for the word "Trump." It could be anything.
Unaware of the chaos? I haven't seen anything he's done so far that's the "sky is falling" levels of bad. I see he's listening to scientists instead of "Q". That can't be it though right?

Again, what's got you guys so scared?
What'd he do? What's got you guys sweating so hard?

At $12/hour they go hungry? What about $13.50? $14.25 and college is off the table? Is $15 in rural Mississippi = $15 in NYC? Does COLA mean nothing anymore?


I think they'll end up making it above $15 in states that have a more expensive COL. Sure, some states might be able to afford some food and rent or live with the parents at $10-$12 an hour, but don't we want these people to be able to buy those necessities and then save for college or save up and do more to boost the economy? Giving someone just enough to survive is never the answer.

Nah not at all. I think everyone deserves a livable wage so they can get food on the table and a place to live. I think younger adults have an opportunity to get ahead and help pay for college etc and not have to struggle as they set out on their own.

I don't have a problem with the minimum raise rise at all.

Are people really worried about small businesses when it comes to $15/hr as the minimum wage or is it more because after all those years of building cabinets or fixing toilets you're gonna be making as much as a 16-year-old kid flipping burgers at McDonald's?

Sad.
239 million people were eligible to vote in the 2020 presidential election and roughly 66.1% of them submitted ballots, totaling about 158 million.

So, you believe Biden got 80 million votes, amirite?


Why is this always a question? Trump gets 75 mil. Biden gets 80 mil. That's still only 62% of the US population. What's so hard to believe?
I dunno I mean all life is sacred. I'd be inadvertently accepting the guilt of the abortion by accepting the stem cell.

Just like if I didn't rob a bank, someone I know robbed it then later they gave me some of that money and I spent it. I didn't do the crime, but I benefitted from it.
Absolutely! Just in this case, it did!
Not at all, but the company that made it acknowledge that the stem cell they use is from an actual aborted fetus, so in this case it stands.
Cure that Trump has been promoting and took was made from stem cells.


So which side wins? Pro-Life or Blessing from God? Decisions decisions...
