This ad from a consortium of pharmaceutical companies basically threatening to stop innovating if we reduce drug prices the wrong way makes me ill. The profit motive in medicine leads to perverse incentives. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theatlantic.com/amp/article/585253/ …https://twitter.com/AccountistLisa/status/1175966422880489472 …

I saw this ad during @MeetThePress today.
An emotional plea for R&D.
So, I went to their website and read the info.
It struck me as a threat, to stop researching cures for cancer & Alzheimer’s, which my mom died of, a year ago, if Rx prices are reduced.
