Last month, the Biden administration announced it would allow Medicare to negotiate drug prices, prompting right-wing hysteria about price controls. Yet Biden's plans don’t go far enough: the state should fund R&D to further cut costs.
drug companies do little to no basic research. they take something that was studied and do research to figure out the what a mass produced product would be like and run it through the studies necessary to pass usda and fda and such requirements.
Oh no. Drug companies do indeed do some massive research. Just via intermediaries that receive Federal tax dollars.
See, you pay out the ass first for the research. Then you pay out the ass to get the medication because “we have to recoup the cost of research” that you already paid for via tax dollars.
See, why rob the average American blind once when you can rob them blind twice?
