Tim , they're worse than welfare recipients.

At least welfare recipients don't TELL you how much you HAVE to give them.

Tim, Medicare is probably the Biggest Drug Buying Entity in the World, yet they CAN'T negotiate drug prices the way the Canadian Government can???

That's CERTAINLY not capitalism. It's WELFARE for the drug companies.

Instead of just pouring money into these guy's pockets why don't we work with them to "limit their exposure to lawsuits" and provide incentives for them to develop drugs we actually need instead of the next viagra?
