    Since 2006, the average cost for a year of medication for someone with a chronic disease has more than doubled to over $11,000. Americans deserve #ABetterDeal to lower prescription drug prices.pic.twitter.com/DiI7BMxTEU

        Your have to talk to Dem about that since they contribute billions every year to their reelection campaigns. Maybe if they stop taking their money & meeting with their lobbyists things just might change. But not before they do

        Do you realize the billions of dollars and years it takes to bring a drug to market based on Gov requirements. Billions of dollars and years and many drugs go they the process and fail and the company doesn’t get their money back

        Do you realize how much drug discovery is often subsidized by state and federal funds? Perhaps it works differently in St. Petersburg.

        Have you heard of universities, Tim? That’s where a lot of drug discovery begins. (I get paid to do research. I’d be glad to send you a contract if you’d like more specific info on drug costs.)

        Then should you not have that percentage ready at hand? I’m sure you must also know that private corporations give billions to universities, from outright grants to funding the very buildings where you work.

        Any way to compare that to the average in other countries? Bet it would be a shocker
