The median US American household has an income (pre-tax) of $80,610 as of 2023[0]; the idea that that translates into $62k of disposable income simply does not pass the smell test. I suspect the various adjustments[1] described in your source are deeply misrepresenting reality.
[1]: "This indicator also takes account of social transfers in kind 'such as health or education provided for free or at reduced prices by governments and not-for-profit organisations.' The data shown below is published by the OECD and is presented in purchasing power parity (PPP) in order to adjust for price differences between countries."
Sure but I stand by my statement. The vast majority of Americans can afford $254/month. Prices will go down with competition and crash when the FDA Exclusivity period expires
