When these pharma guys looked at the ACA as a boon, they forgot one thing, once the monster was born, there was no stopping it. Now they will see the downside of this law as it ruins the entire bio tech industry. Why spend billions on bringing a drug to market while not being able to make money from the endeavor. No one talks about the failures and how much money is blown away on them and on defending the usual host of liability suits that always follow a new drug introduction.
Trying to fix the ACA is like trying to pick up a turd by the clean end.
...and probably not give a hoot. They got their bonuses.
That is why I oppose Obamacare. Medical progress is great, but it will grind to a halt as the bloated FedGov determines the "acceptable" profit for innovation. Far too many brilliant researchers will choose another field, where they can profit from their discoveries. Socialism is both evil and harmful, and the "poor and minorities" they claim to care about will be the hardest hit as socialism creeps into more areas of our lives.
