Did everyone forget about scumbag Martin Shkreli who raised medication prices for no reason other than he wanted more money?
“In September 2015, Shkreli was widely criticized when Turing obtained the manufacturing license for the antiparasitic drug Daraprim and raised its price to insurance companies from $13.50 to $750.00 (USD) per pill.”
Martin worked at Retrophin and Turing Pharmaceuticals but mostly he was a hedge fund manager.
Got nothing to do with Parker or Mangione.
Pfizer still got billions from the government and was allowed to patent Covid vaccines that we all fucking paid for.
Also their dick pills are covered by insurance while meds my wife needs to make it through perimenopause aren’t.
Pfuck them all. Drug companies are at least half the problem with US healthcare, look at what Perdue and the Sacklers did.
Pfizer being allowed to patent Covid vaccines was a failure to govern, you should never have expected anything less than that from any company but rather you should expect more from your government.
Their pills being covered or not has nothing to do with the manufacturer. The entity who covers treatment made the decision.
Let’s make a hypothetical where all drug companies are as bad as Purdue, then we would have to get rid of them all. OH WAIT! Whats this? The Covid Vaccine never gets made? Nobody is working on the new H5N1 vaccine? Well, I guess we’ll just have to watch half of us die or be permanently disabled, lol. Organized medicine can’t be allowed, after all. /s
It’s called an example of behavior.
Its a very common thing that happens in human conversation.
Alright well in that case all non-alcoholics and painters are literally Hitler.
