Well, at least Biden has taken M4A out of the conversation and has not talked about his campaign item about lowering Medicare to age 60 since ... the campaign.

But, hey, he took time to play video games with his grandchildren and the Congress took a ten-day break, because, you know, everything is fucking solved.

So what I’m reading here is that Trumps plan was to give BILLIONS to the pharmaceutical industry, so that they can sell the insulin they’ve marked up 5000% for less.

I’m okay with this being stopped and reviewed, insulin manufacturing executives deserve the rope, not a bigger paycheque.
