What would be the motivation for a drug company to participate in the price negotiations? If they are penalized with an excise tax, the retail price would be raised and consumers stuck paying higher prices. As usual, dumb idea by the left the ultimately hurts those they ostensibly want to help.
They do not want to help anyone in any way, shape, or form. All about power and $$$.
By the time you add Medicare, Tricare Life, Tricare Prime is set to take huge hits, Medicaid, that is a lot of people using it, all prices are PRE-NEOGIATED, 1 of the reasons Walgreens stopped taking Tricare Life a few yrs ago. Add in private, that is a ton of GRAFT, FRAUD, THEFT.
They have been quite about the Medicare hike, it was $148 last year. Now tons of illegals/refugees are being dumped on what they didn’t pay into or earn.
