    Insulin is cheaper just about everywhere for the same reason.

    Bullshit. Insulin was invented in the 1920th. Plus the majority of development is done in Europe. Most pharma corporations are European.

    Why would we give up $20/hour service jobs to take work someone else is doing for $1/hour?

    We shouldn't get too cute with "kill switches" and denying firms like Huawei access to our software. They'll just write their own code.

    does traitor Trump make his products in the USA yet?

    "Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) announced Thursday he will accompany patients with diabetes on a bus trip to Canada to buy insulin that's available at cheaper prices than in the U.S."

    is that really what you consider a traitor - we need to rein in the abusive prices of things like insulin in the USA

    "The move comes as Sanders seeks to burnish his progressive bona fides as he vows to lower drug costs if elected president."

    most Americans support him on this one

    Why? In Germany its paid by publich healthcare. Patients get it for free. We have a social state. So i dont see the problem.

    How would a universal health care plan, in the US, cause Canada to change their drug policies?

    Like your post, though I'm certain that China is stealing the soft and hard technology they are producing within their borders.

    Insulin should not cost what it does

    The research was done decades ago.
