If this price-fixing, which is supposed to be a felony under 15 USC was to be stopped then the drug would cost $25/bottle

Price fixing is an agreement (written, verbal, or inferred from conduct) among competitors that raises, lowers, or stabilizes prices or competitive terms. Generally, the antitrust laws require that each company establish prices and other terms on its own, without agreeing with a competitor.

Looks like Karl has an incorrect definition of price-fixing.

Ah, there was not a ‘love’ of candidate, or charity purposes that Johnson&Johnson was Jeb Bush's super pac donor. What is NOT disclosed is that via legislation these big pharma donors are reimbursed their millions for candidates they purchase. That is the ‘racket’.
