LOL troll they did a TON of stuff. Chips act and infrastructure, $35 insulin cap, just to name a few. Stop bitching and start learning. You are right about one thing though: this isn't going to fix medicine costs, not by a long shot.
No, he did not. He created an OPTIONAL plan for a SUBSET of drugs, and only half the suppliers opted in. This is like hiring a contractor to build a deck and instead he just lays a blanket on the ground.
@@emerynoel567 I'm still wondering why Biden and Harris did not during the years in office, I mean they had every chance and now only to get your votes they promise to do it, typical politicians promises are never kept they all lie.
That would be great if most people on Medicare automatically had a prescription plan, but we don’t. I guess I need to come in through the southern border before I can get full healthcare
Wait Sue Who? PHARMA Comp you sell Xerelto about 5 x times cheaper price in Canada. Did you Stop selling in Canada? So you make a Profit selling the drugs in other countries but SUE when you can Not Gouge and charge Excessive amounts to the US Government and other US customers?
Because you are subsidizing their healthcare. They have price caps. If you have 10 customers, and 7 of them negotiate a price cap, guess where you are going to get your profit? That's right the 3 who didn't. Do you know what happens when the other three put price caps in place? Thats right, the product becomes a loss or makes zero profit and your company either stops innovating new products or goes out of business. Embargo countries with drug price caps and you will see their prices go up, but you would also see the US go down.
@barryseebo3535 The system for pricing is broken. Drugs may be capped but are selected for efficacy, side effects and price versus similar drug. When there is more than X percentage difference between countries that seems excessive it is not fair. Not everyone has insurance, not everyone is rich. Some of the drugs treat issues that are Not caused by the consumer. Up to Governments, Insurance companies and pharma companies to reach a fair price
@@cappy2282 Are you claiming these things didn't happen? Because they are in fact real things that really happened, here in the really real world. No shame, no financial gains, nothing but facts on this side. Well, facts and an _intense_ disdain for magachuds and other morons.
The negative comments on this video are misleading. Copays were already set before this announcement, and the true out-of-pocket maximum for prescriptions has been reduced to $2,000 annually, after which medications are free. For example, Xarelto, which retails for $545 a month, is among the medications on this list. Many of these drugs are essential for managing chronic conditions like diabetes or heart disease. I have patients with congestive heart failure who struggle to afford their medications. This change will save lives.
I agree, most of the negative comments are done by shitposting magachuds. I do agree that this will save some lives and make some lives easier, but the drug companies are still gonna find ways to make their money. They'll charge fees or raise the prices of other drugs. This move isn't nearly enough; it's only going to shift the burdens around.
Price Reduction = Higher Co-Pays
So do you want the medication lower or not?? 😂😂
@@cadenceglass8809my 7$ copay is now 25$ over the count, so much chEaPeR!🙄thanks Kamala!
What a joke. The government, owned by drug companies, is going to negotiate drug prices. Funny.
@@chipbrown9196 socialism is at the door
Could have done this long ago if he wasn't paying the taliban
Right, so now when I used to pay a $7.00 copay my pills will be available over the counter for $25.00. Thanks Joe and Kamala.
3.5 yrs they did nothing what the hell have they been doing in office.

A real journalist would be asking WHO IS OUR PRESIDENT??
Didnt Trump lower prescription drugs when he was in office and right to try.yes he did
Not much at all.Biden and Harris would have had better by now had Republicans not voted against programs.
No, he did not. He created an OPTIONAL plan for a SUBSET of drugs, and only half the suppliers opted in. This is like hiring a contractor to build a deck and instead he just lays a blanket on the ground.

Thought they put a price cap on Medicare and ting?
Trump put an OPTIONAL (and temporary) cap on SOME insulin. Biden mandated the cap for all insulin. This new thing will affect more drugs.
😂 well its an election year😂
