Big Pharma CEO email: 'We raised the price from $1,700 per bottle to $75,000. Should be a very handsome investment.

This is a difficult issue and I understand it is a costly proposition.

If you had asked a person in the US 200 years ago if everybody would have running water, electricity, Internet, GPS, etc in our era they would have said exactly what conservatives say these days about National Health Care. They would say it is not doable.

IN the 23rd century historians will look at our era and will likely say we were barbarians for not having National Health Care.

The same kind of people that opposed the abolition of forced child labor, sweat shops, and the 80 hour week are the same people that oppose National Health care. I get it!

We are still in our infancy and behave just like animals in the wild.

Who said it was morally right? All I was saying is this is how it operates, and morals have nothing to do with how they operate their business. If you want to change it, you will have to legislate that.

Are you OK with imposing your moral standard so that you can get more people killed?

Got back to my previous post:

On the other hand, many clueless people cheer at Bernie's theft and drug company's bankruptcy while conveniently overlook now more people are dying because of no more development in new medicines.
