Mylan’s CEO is Heather Bresch, who has received a 671% raise in compensation over the last 6 years as Epipen’s price has gone through the roof....now the best part, Heather Bresch is JOE MANCHIN’S daughter. Hillary is showboating for the media, pure and simple.

Yet she’s fine with stealing $250,000 for one speech.
Aww, it would have been funnier if she started harping about how much they’ve been increasing the price of her Diazepam injector pens :)
Like she really gives a damn.
And hitlery is a member of the same gang of scumbags who made importing your scrip from abroad illegal. And who decided to not allow the government to negotiate drug prices.
This is all about making their cronies stinking rich under the guise of “fairness.”
