We have the pharmaceutical lobbys in Washington D.C. that make sure the federal govt. keeps it that way. 
Remember? When Obama first started working on "ObamaCare" he promised to have the entire process "transparent" and aired LIVE on C-SPAN.
Instead...the very FIRST thing he did was have closed door meetings with all the major pharmaceutical companies and assure them that they could continue to overcharge for medications in the U.S.
That's when I realized that "health care" wasn't even what "ObamaCare" was about. It was supposed to be all about LOWERING the cost of HEALTH CARE.
Instead it gave reassurances to all parties involved that the cost would RISE and that everyone would be forced to get insurance. |
Its because avg citizens dont make big contributions. As long as it cost a billion to become president and over 5 mil to become a congressman from some nowhere district its not going to change.
