Anyone care to bet even under Obummer care Warren Buffett will be able to gulp all the prostate cancer drugs he wants?? Yeah my guess is these people will continue to be pains in people’s butts long after the cancer is controlled.

I don’t belive this guy had cancer, I think the mussies threatened the country and they let him go.

the real question is why is that drug...perhaps just a few pills or an ounce or so of a liquid worth $25,000 dollars??? I understand R and D and all that, but the total value of the ingredients in that dosage cannot be more than a few dollars.
