Hello juante! Hope you’re well today! BTW, I posted early last Saturday morning (thought it was still Friday night) that Obamacare has cleared the last House subcommittee and - when the congresscritters come back, Nancy intends to give ‘em their marching orders and vote that it be done!
BUT - one of the sops the last committee gave was to the drug companies - allowed them a 12 year exclusive (insuring higher prices) for life saving drugs for Cancer, Alzheimer’s and other horrible and
usually terminal illnesses. And I gotta say - for personal reasons anyway, that SUCKS big time. And I don’t frankly give a damn if it was the Democrats with or without Republican help; that provision has literally DOOMED many good folks to an early or at least earlier death than they would otherwise have suffered if they had access to those drugs.
