They actually are the "deep state" that the republicans always fearmonger about. They hate the deep state because they can't blockade it like they can the house. The 2023-2024 US house of representatives has been the least productive in US history, a sharp contrast with the 2021-2022 which was one of the most productive. The republicans just jam up everything with their bogus Biden impeachments and witchhunts and rituals and all the other nonsense. They can do that because their message is that government doesn't work. So if they fuck things up in government that's just proof that they were right. That is one of the reasons being a democrat is much harder than being a republican. To be a democrat you have to be good at your job, to be a republican it's good to be bad at your job.

Consumers aren't supposed to have to think about the drama going on there - you just pay your co-pay and move on. The US also does over 90% of the world's medical research.

@@ninehundreddollarluxuryyac5958 There are some countries that do. And if it's not free, then it should at least be universal. And I'm aware of that fact. In Europe right now, health coverage is universal and aims to provide care to everyone. In the United States, not all citizens have access to publicly-funded insurance, even if they qualify. In 2021, the U.S. spent 17.8 percent of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) just on health care, which is nearly twice as much as the average OECD country. Healthcare spending per person in the U.S. was nearly two times higher than in the closest country to us, which is Germany (which gives free healthcare to those that qualify), and our health insurance alone then was at least four times higher than in South Korea. That number hasn't decreased at all even with inflation lowering. We just want a system that works for us here, so please don't tell me you have it tough, you don't.

I generally haven't liked her, but this point is definitely interesting. The patent system is definitely a source of many problems, and needs review. And these kinds of targeted fixes could be quite beneficial. As for $500 for an inhaler... More than 90% of Americans have insurance. And I've bought them without insurance, and they definitely weren't anywhere near that expensive (I remember $85 when I last did some years ago - which I did admittedly think was more expensive than it should have been). Exaggeration makes your point seem bigger... But, that approach also creates automatic pushback from people who aren't inclined to be on your side. So one has to be careful about such things. Because otherwise you feed into division. Also, as far as it goes, you can get an asthma inhaler in some countries for $0.50. Although, that could also be seen as a byproduct of purchasing power differences between the currencies. Still, interesting though... Why not import from cheaper countries while the advantage remains? They benefit and you also benefit.
