- missedthecue 1mo agoYes I know. That sounds about what it should be. Maybe less actually.
- bhelkey 1mo agoWhy should drugs in America cost >2x the price of drugs in other countries?
- missedthecue 1mo agoInvert the question. Why do other countries pay half as much? Because they can't afford to pay more.
- denkmoon 1mo agoYou don't pay twice as much just because you can lol
