Honey, if you look beyond that headline you will see they lowered the price FOR SOME because of pressure from Hillary Clinton, not capitalism.
"""The American Medical Association and other doctor groups joined members of Congress and Hillary Clinton urging EpiPenmanufacturer Mylan to “rein in exorbitant costs” of its life-saving device for allergy sufferers."""
Doctors Demand Mylan Lower EpiPen Price
By the time they figure out how SOME PEOPLE will get a discount it will be like waiting for BP to pay for the devastation done to Gulf Coast businesses from the oil spill. Don't hold your breath.
Wrong....they knew that this was a P.R. disaster.......and it would effect their profit...so they had to actually change........and they did it on a dime.....remember......the government on health care....? You can keep your doctor if you want to...and obamacare would drive the cost curve down.....and in Illinois...the cost curve thanks to obama is going up 49%..........how fast is that going to change?
Socialism doesn't work......overnight the price for this item is coming down because they have to keep their customers happy.....try that with obamacare...see what happens...
And remember, Mylan has countered that they will offer a discount for some people. What is that discount? Who will get it? You are such a tool.
You are a fool....the government, once again created the mess...and then you blame capitalism....the one thing that is going to fix the problem.......again, how fast are the price increases in obamacare going to come down.....will you still be alive then?
Dont forget govt banned over the counter asthma inhalers.....they love you...they really do
They know whats best..........even now working on more health taxes for you cause you dont know how to take care of your self..........Dont forget govt banned over the counter asthma inhalers.....they love you...they really do
Big Pharma owns Congress. They really do.
So Joe Manchin's daughter's plea of how this $600 price tag is out of her control is just a lot of hogwash.
Canada buys their EpiPens from the U.K. and sells them online (with a prescription) for $112 USD.
Buy Epipen 0.3mg Medication - Discount Prescription Drugs - Canada
Shall we wait to see when Canada goes bankrupt because they regulate the price of drugs? Don't hold your breath.
Edited: The cost of producing a single vial of Epinephrine ranges from .10 to .95. It was first created and implemented in....wait for it....1904. I wonder what the cost of the injector is? Probably a couple of bucks. So Joe Manchin's despicable daughter cannot claim R & D on this one. Bitch.
This isn't just price gouging, it's extortion.

Her income went way up after the price hikes. We need price controls.

How much money is hilary getting from Mylan.....care to look into that....how much did they give to the clinton foundation...care to look into that?
And of course......Capitalisms motto....How can I serve you....the company announced they are going to help people who need the pen.....a capitalist response......considering the FDA squashed another, generic pen..........a socialist response, and another pen was recalled, created a short term monopoly for this pen.....
The company is responding by giving out coupons to people who can't afford the price, cutting it by 50% and increasing the number of people who qualify for it....and once the FDA gets off its ass and moves more products through the pipeline of the bureaucratic morass.....then the price will actually come down as more companies make it...
More competition, not government interference is how the quality goes up and the price goes down...just ask your Apple I-phone.....
What an ignorant statement.
The US has the less regulated environment in the world for Big Pharma. Thus the fact that Big Phama's prices are many times more expensive in the USA than in other country in the world.
Our congress and president could do something about this rape of America, but they are so far in the back pocket of Big Pharma, nothing happens. That'd be Republicans and Democrats.
Get a fucking clue.

She just blasted Mylan in a rally the other day, the foundation gets meds cheaper from Mylan, just like insurance companies do.
Why Did Mylan Hike EpiPen Prices 400%? Because They Could
I think those of you who are foundering on the capitalism argument badly really should have done a little research before mouth-breathing your comments on this thread.
Mylan/CEO should be okay...given they donated $$$ to the Clinton SlushFundation. They can pull a Hillary and claim they were just "careless" in their pricing and probably get away with it...
50% how f'ing generous of them. Congress will be paying for new epipens in the schools every year as the old ones expire.

The prices for our drugs come from the fact that we actually create the drugs.....from determining there is a need for a drug to the years of research an hundreds of millions of dollars to actually find the drug that works and put it into a useful form.....that is why our drugs cost more....
Canada...Britain....they make the pill after all the other work is done.......so they have absolutely no cost to making that pill other than making the pill........big difference .....
And of course people like you...want to increase taxes on everyone...to send that money to the very politicians you say created this problem...right?

This is beyond disgusting. Joe Manchin should disown his daughter, who is the CEO of Mylan. All of Congress is in bed with Big Pharma.
This chart shows why everyone's angry about soaring price of lifesaving EpiPen
This is the perfect example of why corporations or the rich greedy ceo's need to be taxed on their greed.Fucking criminal crony capitalism, Dems will sweep it under the rug
