Big Pharma got me Fucked UP
-
2020-12-16 at 10:32 PM UTCSays my copay is over $2000.00
Price of meds without insurance is $78000.00
With insurance my copay is still over $2000.00
So I had to call for a coupon and finally got it down to $5.00 but it took over an hour on the phone.
At one point I asked the lady on the phone why it is so damn expensive when in India it is only a few dollars per pill and she got all bitchy with me so I hung up and called back to speak to someone else.
Health care in the USA is completely fucked and all those Big Pharma mother fuckers should be taken out.
Fuck them all. -

Yeah no shit, you are being hosed for being too lazy to make it yourselves. You think this shit is hard to make? The only hard part is distributing it to so many people.
Consumer culture has led to Americans not wanting to fix their own car, build their own computer or make their own medicine. You want everything done for you, so why should healthcare be any different?
If i needed a medicine to stay alive I would think it would be wise to figure out the best way to get it, for the cheapest price, for the rest of my life instead of just expecting someone else to do it all for you.
The way DRUG STORES used to work in America was the manufacturing was done by chemists in pharmacies for their patients on orders from doctors. If the doctor wrote you a prescription he would also telephone the pharmacy to cook up a batch for you. The vast majority of drugs can be produced without industrial equipment but Americans don't want that. They want big box stores and brand pharmacies like CVS and walgreens that also sell D X M because it's just easier to give lil timmy a bottle of packaged drugs than to wait for the pharmacist to fill a bottle for you or whatever.
It's because of consumer culture, pill culture. Just take this pill it's a quick fix! because that's how they get the most money. Suddenly this is a problem and everyone bitches even though it's hundreds of years in the making with no action from anyone trying to stop it. You let it happen

america has the affordable care-act [.obama-care] and i think you need to do a bit of deeper research [.google] on an insurance coverage plan because your medication-treatment should be covered or at least heavily reduced. -
