"There is a non-trivial impact to US competitiveness that comes from sustaining the world's drug R&D budget. I'm not sure what the solution is, but I have to say that giving the rest of the world a free ride on US health care costs isnt very appealing."

Thank you. I have been saying that for a long time. The lovers of Socialized Medicine think that if we just socialize that research would be sustained and we would bask in the glow of lower costs. I think it would destroy the research pipeline.
