Single-payer is the only answer
You can also find previous episodes on YouTube here.
Is it pie in the sky to be able to afford your prescription drug? Is it pie in the sky to desire good healthcare that you can afford? While many are hedging, pharmaceutical companies are moving forward in redistributing America’s wealth. You heard that right. Drug companies are one of the major sources of wealth transfer in America. And they are aided by crooked politicians, timid politicians, or both.
Recently the IMS reported that drug company gouging continues and will continue for the foreseeable future. Yet many scoff at Bernie Sanders’ demand for single-payer health care. America, let’s make an attempt at individual logical fact based thinking. Let’s not be condemned by ignorance.
