It is about US taxpayer funded research and how canadians (and the world) benefit from it. It's about allowing the pharmaceutical companies to benefit from excessive profit , no one else.

SS. Ever heard of share holders or even employees? I live near Indianapolis, Indiana home of Eli Lilly. We see those exessive profits all over our state. So your ignorance of what happens to those "exessive' profits is evident. Even if you do belive they are 'exessive" they just don't disappear into some black hole.

Government funding pharmaceutical company research . Sounds socialist, maybe worse.

SS.Allowing? Your government not "allowing" them? Your goverment sets the drug prices. With your idea of dickering. Your government is doing it and you advocate it! And you think your not a socialist? Like I said, assnine arguements. The US also gives more free life saving drugs to the world Sure, free samples in doctors'offices. Many third world countries can't afford and don't have prescription drugs available .,p. SS.More ignorance.

all the prescription drug runners This maybe a bit of a shock to you but Americans buying prescription drugs in Canada is not illegal. They're not breaking any law .

SS. For export back to US? Tell me all about Canadian export law and US import law. So far you've managed to call me a socialist and an ungrateful lib. I'm neither but I am realistic enough to know the American drug consumer is over prescribed and is being over charged. Any Drug company advocate would know that. But never admit it.

SS. You are a socialist and don't have the guts to admit it. Please tell me where I stated drugs are not over prescribed or where we are being overcharged for them.

Obviously you're not interested in facts. The US is not the only country to research , manufacture or export drugs, brand or generic. Thousands of US citizens obtain drugs in Canada and if ,as you insist , that is illegal then stop it. But your government hasn't . And don't plan to. WHY? Never mind. A fact. It's not illegal.

Please tell me where I stated drugs are not over prescribed or where we are being overcharged for them.

You didn't . I said Americans are. And Americans are . btw Assnine is spelt asinine. At least get something right.
