I just found out that insulin is ten times more expensive in the US compare to Europe. This can hardly be explained without the existance of a price cartel and something seems to be really rotten in the US drug market. Let's hope that efforts like this will help bring prices down to a more reasonable level.

also, supply and demand to a degree. y'all have some catching up to do before you're doing novalog shooters with deep fried dr pepper balls.
At ten times the market price of Europe margins must be huge and supply should skyrocket in a free market.
Listen, Im no phlebotomist or anything, I just calls it how I sees it.
After having looked up "phlebotomist" on Wikipedia I can assure you that I did not have the intention to accuse you of being one.
