Anonymous Coward User ID: 76312120 United States 08/12/2019 09:44 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Canadians are furious about the Trump administration’s plan to import their prescription drugs. And some of them are determined to stop the proposal in its tracks. Quoting: Cartel™ Trump’s plan, which was announced late last month, would allow states, wholesalers, and pharmacies to import cheaper drugs from Canada. It’s a long way off from being implemented, but Canadians are baffled that America would look north to lower its own drug prices, and indignant that such a plan could exacerbate an already pressing drug shortage issue plaguing the country. “You are coming as Americans to poach our drug supply, and I don’t have any polite words for that,” said Amir Attaran, a professor at the University of Ottawa, who calls the plan “deplorable” and “atrociously unethical.” “Our drugs are not for you, period.” [link to www.statnews.com (secure)] :trumptears: Why in the world would we purchase drugs from canads when were the ones making the drugs to begin with? This seems a little ridiculous. Like they sinply dont want to negotiate with pharma companies |

If there isn't enough drugs to supply Canadiens how can we supply America. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 69216595 What they need is to take the US back from corporate interests and stop letting mega corporations dictate everything. Then they could lower the price of drugs to the same level we have here. I've never used much medicine and almost never see a doctor as it is, but enough is enough. |

Its a shell game because of fixed price socialized medicine in Canada. What's that you say, the evil mega-corporations are not allowed to price gouge up here in Canada, because of Socialism, whereas down there they can make a pretty penny off the suffering and sickness of your population, like the good little succubuses they are? Capitalism, such a winner! |

Or is Pfizer (et all) just shipping the drugs to where they're selling for the most money or selling the best? While I agree this doesn't really fix the problem in the US, I can't see why anyone in Canada would complain about free money. Just... mah drugs! |

How come all his lazy-ass virtue signalling and "you didn't build that" never looked into the issue of price gouging by Big Pharma? I realize Limousine Liberals and Champagne Socialists need to protect some of their pay-to-play and gold-plated lifestyle. But come on, guys. Sheesh. Sometimes a bit of logic and ethics should affect even you on the left. On at least a few occasions. Apparently not? . |

User ID: 74020033 United States 08/12/2019 11:36 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Why do canadians care? Thought they had a perfect country. Once upon a time, there lived a magnificent race of animals that dominated the world through age after age. They ran, they swam, and they fought and they flew, until suddenly, quite recently, they disappeared. Nature just gave up and started again. We weren't even apes then. We were just these smart little rodents hiding in the rocks. And when we go, nature will start again. With the bees, probably. Nature knows when to give up. The radical left religion of climate change advocacy is rotting your brain, but that's what happens when one is intellectually inbred. Your ass has been pumped more than the Saudi oil fields! Trump is a giant wake up call to all those idiots who has been told they are special and has been raised in a childhood full of participation medals. Beware of anyone who says they can predict earth's future climate. You must have a circumcision scar on your neck. Everyone dies alone. But if you meant something to someone, if you helped someone, or loved someone. If even a single person remembers you, Then maybe you never really die. And maybe, this isnt the end at all. The climate change cult is so important to socialist politicians, and so protected by the media, that it survived the massive Climategate scandal, which featured the publication of emails that demonstrated climate scientists were conspiring to suppress inconvenient data. Leftism is low hanging fruit for political idiots. |

Not too long ago, sometime within the last year, IIRC, the president appointed some fellow to look into lowering prescription drug prices in the US. He was dead in a month. So, I guess POTUS is going to try something else. |
