Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!

I love propaganda!

The active incredients cost x, the drugs sell for y, that is a mark-up of 5000%... yeah except new drugs don't just fall out of the sky! It costs huge amounts of money to research a new pharmaceutical, put it through years and years of studies and trial before you finally get a licence. Not to mention all the billions of dollars that is pumped into researching drugs that don't make it to market. That is also why the patent lasts for 20 years to allow them to recover their money!

Drugs cost 3 times more than they did 30 years ago! WOW!!! That is suprising as everything else has got cheaper!
