of course its at our expense.. the drug is priced higher because they know in other countries they cannot get the marginal profit so they inflate costs in america to meet objectives. This scenario is really irksome but it isn't in our best interests to stop the foreign sales. That's cutting off one's nose to spite one's face. It may feel good at first but it isn't rational. We should adopt some type of national pricing structure to be fair to all consumers and the industry. I thought we were done with price controls after the Nixon fiasco. How soon we forget!
