Another example where the free market trumps gov't intervention

Precisely!!!! However, the DUmmies want cutting edge drugs that don't have alternatives at $4 price. Of course, there is no such thing. Innovation will vanish and therefore the cures will too.

Innovation will vanish and therefore the cures will too.

And the $4 prescriptions will also vanish. If pharmeceutical companies can't make money from leading edge drugs, they'll have to make it from the (now) routine ones.

It's no wonder that the US, with its so-far free market drug system, comes up with more innovation than any of the countries where drug prices are controlled. I just hope there's a country where drug research can relocate if we lose our collective minds and allow these Liberal ideas to take hold.
