“Before blaming this entirely on obama...drug companies have not been keeping up with this either.”

America has traditionally had by far the best pharmaceutical industry in the world. Most of the drugs were invented and developed in the U.S. The most advanced manufacturing was in the U.S. The government, particularly the Obama Administration sees drug companies as the enemy. Trial lawyers see them as an easy target.

As a result of this harsh regulatory environment and the general anti-business policies of the Obama Administration some of the drug manufacturing capacity in the U.S. has shut down.

The remaining manufacturing faces much tougher and frankly stupid regulations making it more difficult to manufacture drugs in the U.S.

Add to that the price regulations imposed by the Obama regime and it simply doesn't make sense to manufacture in the U.S.

More drugs now come from overseas but this supply is far less reliable.

It is Obama’s fault, directly or indirectly. It is part of a pattern to turn America into a backward third world country. And they hope people like you won't be intelligent enough to understand what they are doing.

According to my Fox News link the problem has been going on for 6 years now. As much as I don't like Obama Care (my GF works in a hospital) I'm not letting the drug companies off the hook either. They are partially to blame and to blame it all on obama is not solving the problem.
