They are medical devices and thus are taxed heavily under Obamacare. Did she not read the bill either?

My cynical side wonders if Hilary Rotten is fishing for some free epipens? After all, her ilk want everything gratis for the implied endorsement of product use. Just like real celebs!

Maybe she shorted IBB. Low so far is 285.92. It just had another quick big drop. Of course, I got out of my short right before it dumped another two points.

I just got a pacemaker. A large portion of the bill was the device tax.

Ask her if she’s opposed to Obama’s FDA policy. It was the changes in the FDA approval of generics that set off this price surge in the first place.

Probably a campaign aide conceived and issued the message on her behalf.

New Virginia Law Requires Epi-Pens in Schools

The new law signed by Governor McDonnell requires epi-pens to be stocked in each school, while the budget provides funds to pay for them. The new guidelines must be implemented for the 2012-2013 school year.

Epi-Pen Law

President Obama signed a bill into law, Wednesday allowing schools to have a "stock" of Epi Pens used for both students and staff.

Got it. You love price controls, gun registration, single payer healthcare and socialism.

Why are you here ?

I'll bet Big Pharma in this case has paid its "dues" already, so nothing will be done, but boy will the witch get a lot of foot stomping in....

notice how clever companies are...they run these commercials for several months showing important it is to have an epipen and then whammo....the price skyrockets...

create a chaos and then take the prize.

“How come none of these for-the-little-guy types is outraged by college tuition hikes? “

They need the well paid left wing professors to continue the indoctrination of sheep ... uh, students if the Democrat party is to replenish itself and grow.
