So this is being implied as a lie?

There are pre-tax profits, there are post tax profits. If you make $100 pre-tax and pay 37.5% in tax eg; walk away with $62.50, then yes, exactly, $100 is 160% of $62.50.

If Congress didn’t clarify this to their satisfaction then they didn’t.

I’m as appalled by the egregious price rise in this product as anyone, but the lesson to be learned is the government paying for most of these items with ever decreasing rates of reimbursement to the supplier permits and encourages largely unchecked price hikes.

My son’s new allergist showed me how to order meds from Canada. The savings are tremendous. Don’t know if Epipens are available as he no longer needs them.

Lying to Congress is a felony. Lock her up, even if she is Sen. Joe Manchin’s (D-WV) daughter.
