A win is a win, so the Americans should take it were they can but this will just push costs elsewhere. I image they'll just recoup the profit on the next 10 most popular drugs were they can gouge. We really need to start talking about comprehensive healthcare reform, a revolution so to speak, that stops this stupid patchwork and actually give us universal healthcare.
I I'm off the firm belief life saving medicine shouldn't cost the consumer anything. The government should be in charge and negotiate pricing with the businesses. But they're rather bleed us dry.
