Pete, perhaps a limit that a drug provided elsewhere must be sold at the same price here or lower. Do you remember the first year of the Clinton Administration when they tried to do something about the cost of health care? They discussed things like capping drug costs, and your Republican buddies killed it with their standard fear and loathing campaign. As with everything else the Republican party does, the bottom line was pleasing their campaign donors, in this case the pharmaceutical companies. I love how Republicans play on public fear to generate money for their buddies. Reagan did it to the tune of $5 trillion dollars for his defense contractor friends, and most people never understood how they were being shafted. Scumbria
