If Trump can focus more on things like this and COVID instead of putting himself in cultural conflicts, throwing tantrums on Twitter, and appealing only to his 30-35% hardcore base we would all be much better off.
If, if, if is all we have heard for over 3 years!
"instead of putting himself in cultural conflict" But you didn't complain wen obama did it, like the "bear summit", "if my son looked like " and on and on and on.
No, America hates Trump. And I hate Trump. But I will give him credit on these executive orders. At least on the face of them, I think they are good moves. Not enough to make me want to vote for him, but I am not above praising the man when he does something good for a change.
"America hates Trump". I love these grandiose claims when the person making them has NOT asked EACH and EVERY American what they think on the subject.
"And I hate Trump" The typical left way. If they disagree on ANYTHING or ANYONE they IMMEDIATELY go to the "I hate". They have used it so much it is like, "the boy who cried wolf", too often". Such a childish reaction!
I lived through both bill clinton and obama. Didn't agree with much they did but, did NOT sink to the "I hate" level. You will live though Trump, unless you have a heat attack hyperventilating over Trump.

So go die because you wont buy a drug that big pharma engages in monopolistic behavior. Got it.
The US govt underwrites a LOT of drug research including sending many millions directly subsidizing Covid research. Big pharma wants to charge big ON TOP of the subsidies.
I find it funny that consumers in the US are expected to pay 1.5 to 5X (occasionally more) for drugs than EVERY OTHER country on earth. If they are truly unprofitable without gouging the US consumer, perhaps we need to have a discussion with every other country on earth about why we (the US) have to supply all the profit.

"we know exactly where the price-gouging is happening in US health care costs..." Boo-hoo-hoo!
If "we know" know so much, why haven't the "we" gotten a lawyer and sued them for breaking "price gouging" laws.
Unless the " we" is just you and the frog you have in your pocket!
P.S ycharts is nothing more then STOCK investment company tha tWANTS you do do business with them.
Just providing info so consumers will be better informed. Don't like the profit margin of a particular corporation/industry? Don't buy/lease their products/services.
