The high cost of insulin is the reason my mother-in-law died horribly, in front of her 17 year old daughter. I'm disgusted at the republicans who allowed the price cap to be removed.
What an awful tragedy.
And I got a feeling that people with family members that are diabetic and need insulin will vote Republican...
I can only imagine how traumatic that would be 😨 😩 I feel like if we were to record something like that and show it to the lawmakers, they would still not budge.
@@IAmHereForeve Red states are pretty much universally at the bottom of the rankings for health and healthcare, so... not so much a feeling as just... probably a fact.
@@IAmHereForeve Diabetes, sadly, is as common as rain...so I am sure people of all political persuasions are affected.
Bernie is awesome and should have been our president. He is the only one fighting for the working class.
Fr.
People trying to say (to convince themselves) that Biden definitely isn't too old and too lacking in energy should watch some of Bernie's speeches in the house.
Now there is a 'guy who is not too old'.
Even though I love Bernie so is Joe Biden fool
yup
Bernie shouldve been...he won the votes, he was most favored. But Democrat party fucked him over, put Hillary as head campaign and lost everything.

Any decent lawyer (hell, even most shoddy ones too) would advise their clients not to commit crimes during trials. Clients who act against that advice are rather problematic. Perjury is a felony, and one that should be prosecuted more often.
Nothing says "I'm innocent" like flushing documents so you don't get in trouble.
Insulin does not belong to me, it belongs to the world.'' - Sir Frederick Banting ... Banting's co-inventors, James Collip and Charles Best, sold the insulin patent to the University of Toronto for a mere $1. They wanted everyone who needed their medication to be able to afford it.
“This is MY insulin,” Big Pharma
Lmao yeah look how that’s working

Alex Jones should have hired the Secret Service to act as his lawyers, because they would have made sure that his texts were deleted.
It seems hollow not to be able to celebrate with him tonight.
Damn you're everywhere leonaza
Or the Pentagon
Bingo Leonaza7.
On point, as always.
Could it be possible that even someone who'd represent an animal like Jones, even that lawyer could have a heart and a conscience? "Oops, damn! I didn't mean to send THAT to the prosecutors! My bad, Alex."
He’s still going to get paid poetic justice!
My friend bought my insulin or I would have gone without it😞 The pharmacist was very sympathetic but couldn't do anything to help me. I could not believe this was happening.
You have my sympathy - unlike you, I am lucky enough to live in Scotland where all prescription medication is completely free.
To everybody.
There’s things like GoodRx, ScriptSave, or SingleCare that can help get you coupons on prescriptions. With how fucked our healthcare system is, those types of coupons have quite literally saved my life and let me actually afford meds I need to live, but ngl it’s depressing that this is how things are
@@jessicahearts2009 thank you for the coupon idea.🤗 Every little bit helps
would suggest moving to Scotland - here, ALL PRESCRIPTIONS ARE COMPLETELY FREE.
Just saying!
it just dawned on me that Trump complained about water pressure and saying you got to flush 2 to 3 times he was referring to the papers he was flushing in the toilet. 🤣🤣🤣
Now we know wgat that was about
Now we know what that was about. lol
10-15 times
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
You're the first person I've seen say this. Nice one.
Bernie IS the heart of America. His life's work has been to try and make life easier for working Americans, and quality of life better for all Americans. He's always, simply, give a damn. ✌
And they don't deserve him
and Stephen can go get a soup enema, bc he needs one.
I'm going to be so sad when Bernie dies. He's rare.
Yeah. It is called New Deal liberalism.
@@zaloo it was a joke. This is a comedy show.
Plaintiffs' lawyer: "And that is how I know that you lied to me." Love it, absolutely love it. He must have REALLY enjoyed saying this to that POS. I know I enjoyed HEARING it!
You can practically HEAR the glee in the attorney's voice when brought up the mistake.
Me: This has been a mediocre day.
News: FBI raids Mar-a-lago.
Me: This day was GREAT!
The FBI raiding Mar-a-Lago earlier tonight is making the Mango Lardo insane in the membrane, lol.
Yes, it's awesome to see this country turning into a police state
@@metalroofing6708 lmao
He did the crime he gets investigated by the guy he chose to lead the fbi
Get wrecked snowflake
Stephen here looks so innocent! He doesn't know yet of the Maralago raid.
He made need to sit down with a stiff drink ....🤣
The fact Jones kept going on his show after each day of the court case, fully aware he was, by law, NOT allowed to talk about the case and it would be perjury and he WOULD be held accountable for it, STILL kept talking about it.
It was almost like he physically COULDN'T STOP digging that hole he was already in
my god, stephen can do some of the most insane impressions... that alex jones impression was top notch amazing
GOP should be (extra) ashamed of themselves for removing the insulin price cap proviso.
They have no conscience and therefore no shame.
They cebrated it
Shame???? Hell, they are proud of themselves. Who is more profitable for their pharmaceutical buddies than an insulin dependent diabetic...
Trump capped This at 35$ during his presidency, The Biden administration removed this Wake Up
During hitler’s time the sick and disabled were sent to death camps because they were seen as a burden to the country.
Oh how the republicans have learned from history.
That photo of Bernie was him reflecting on how effing hard it is to get anything done that helps people...even when paired to a bill that also has more party favors for the lobbyists and donors.
This bill won't help anyone but the politicians and their families, not yours. Anyone pushing the climate scam is a traitor.
His impersonation of Alex Jones is spot on🤣🤣🤣
*"You rub the mayonnaise.."* A nicely done Tuck Buckford reference for the initiated.
This isn't just a win for Democrats,this is a win for the American people. Thank you President Biden for working so hard for your citizens!
If you see the number of policies gutted from the bill to get the votes of Manchin and Sinema, then you would not praise it as much.
This is a win for planet Earth!
It requires the selling of public land for oil and gas extraction if any clean energy projects take place. Stop being a simp for Manchin and Corpo Democrat swine.
All this does is raise inflation bot!
Could have had more in it. Bernie was fighting for them to extend the child tax credit. There's so much that could be done for everyday Americans but so many groups want to call functional government stalinist communism.
It’s really sad when we have to pass bills to make the richest pay their fair share.
And when the opposition blames the Dems saying that “those corporations will just pass along the costs” as if these corporations own us and we must always appease them (and as if we have no choice but to buy their goods).
Capitalism at it's best.
15% on just a handful of companies, isnt doing much, especially when theres loopholes already in place....so it's still no where near being a "fair share"
after generations of decreasing regulation combined with increasingly more subsidies, tax cuts & other corporate socialism, this baby-step minimum tax rate is hardly their 'fair share', but it's more than nothing. Even if they passed legislation demanding a flat tax for everyone, it would take decades after it took effect for the rich to finally be paying their fair share.
Well the rich people in Congress get to decide which bills to pass, despite what the Middle Class wants.
Stephen mouthing the words to «Bitch better have my money» is EVERYTHING!!!!
“And we do these things not because they are easy but because I am hard” SENT ME HAHAHA
As a diabetic, I'm more than disgusted by the repugnicons constant inability to actually help people other than their wealthy donors. Vote these POS out of office.
Not inability, unwillingess. They absolutely *could,* they just don't want to. They don't give a sh*t.
My friend has Type 1 and a couple years ago, his daughter turned out to have it as well. The insulin for two people costs so much that when both parents randomly lost their jobs near the same time, during the pandemic, they used almost all their savings just for medicine before one of them got insurance from work again.
@@muraalia If they didn't give a shit, they wouldn't fight it. They do give a shit, but it's money out of their pocket.
we're not the only country. theres not many and we are the worst. but i feel bad for diabetics. "Hey maybe a $35 cap on insulin too cuz you....no? No we need to keep letting at least a few groups die for our corporate greed? But im an establishment democrat and i cant sit by idly by while repub-......our mutual donors might get mad? Oh neverminded. Nevermind shhhhhh. Uh yeah...haha.... we care about anything other than just being the opposition to fascists'. Just dont be too left or we'll get mad and say you're too far, then beg for your votes in November.
I miss when the dems were just corporate shills that sucked eachother off but passed good legislation and the republicans just war hocked and vilified muslims. Now we have climate deniers that believe a white beard dude in the sky wants to be up in everyone's genitals and democrats just suck money and back republicans.
Why did the republicans have any say at all in this bill? Aren't the democrats in control?
For those of us watching around the world it’s just staggering the high price ALL Americans let alone the elderly have to pay for prescription drugs especially when compared to other countries where it’s low.
It’s beyond telling that a wealthy country like the US doesn’t have universal healthcare and instead insurance companies price gouge the public. Your healthcare system fails it’s own citizens.
Our entire country and system of government fails us constantly, it was built that way, so...working as intended?
Thanks for noticing
It's America. All we need is to go back to leech treatment at this point.
Unfortunately, far too many Americans believe it is their patriotic duty to be economically raped by insurance companies. "I love my insurance company. Charge me more, charge me more!"
The problem and biggest misunderstanding people have of the system, is that because the average American pays 3x the price for medication, it is availabley cheap across seas.
Colbert is the man! He always speaks the truth and so does his staff. Colbert for president 2024!!
Hell no.. He's a rich person... We need a poor humble president
OMG - The "Bitch better have my money" bit was spit-take-enducingly funny!!
There's no excuse to price-gouge life-sustaining medications except corporate profits. We've been the only country to do this and it's truly sickening.
Quite literally.
So, Big Pharma gets to receive big profits made on insulin... with those and other profits going to key Congresspeople who will continue to help Big Pharma make big profits. This has gotta end.
@@chayoto god damn
The way insurance companies treat diabetics is sick. The amount of paper work that has to be done so my dad can keep his glucose monitor? Every three months certifying that he still has a chronic, incurable disease that he's had for 4 decades just so he can keep getting life saving medicine and diagnostic tools that he pays thousands of dollars a year for? It's enough to make you scream.
Literally sickening!
Shows how much they are pro life. Sorry little Johnny no insulin for you this month.
Pro (people paying for) life!
They're not so much pro-life as they are pro-money, any way they can get it.
@@couragekarnga8735 Yep. And a pregnant young single woman at the bottom of society’s ladder makes for “great” cheap labour as she will be desperate to put food on the table for her children and never will argue for a raise or complain about her being sexually harassed at work - as she can’t afford to loose it,..
Republicans knows this and have publicly even said so - on tape! I’m paraphrasing here, but essentially: “A worker competing with others with very little job security is the greatest capitalistic tool to cut prices on the market. An insecure worker won’t ask for more”.
Watch Noam Chomsky’s documentary if you haven’t,.. 👍
@@couragekarnga8735 I am pro-life, I am pro-two genders and pro-God's way of marriage and it has nothing to do with money. I am all for helping people in need. You don't give me money for my food or my rent or my car payments so you got to buy your own drugs if you need insulin that is your cost and if you can get it discounted well you saved a few dollars. If you got to buy your drugs at street level and top dollar well it is no different than us with the gas prices.
Those JFK jokes were gold, GOLD I TELL YOU!!!! LOL!!!!!!
Alex Jones' lawyer: "im gonna get my soul back, i'm gonna get my soul back, i'm gonna get my soul back...". 🤭
I have a feeling jones' lawyer didn't screw up.
I had the same thought! Dude did “accidentally” because he knows his client is terrible
Yeah, that was 100% intentional.
Same here.
me either, it was my first thought
🎯
Bernie sitting on the steps is how I feel most days when we still don’t have universal health care

@Evermore indeed. We have a few Reps and Senators worthy of such praise. Jamie Raskin springs to mind. And Katie Porter. She's a force to be reckoned with. She is detail oriented with brilliance.
Touche Stephen !!! Your writers are A M A Z I N G!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 xxx
Alex Jones' lawyers threw him under the bus.
That moment when a story breaks RIGHT after taping…
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Tomorrow night's monologue will be epic!!!
You have to be a really nasty excuse for a human being when your own attorney makes sure that the opposition gets whatever it takes to nail you to the wall.
You gotta wonder what happened behind the scenes for Jones' lawyers to shill him like that.
Not that I doubt he deserved it.....
@@sabrakt i mean, there was the thing about what happened during discovery, where instead of sending evidence, he sent a bunch of CP...
@@Iffem .....WHAAAT?!
The fuck happened?!
@@EvilPaladin11 yeah, it was so long ago that most people have forgotten, but yeah, during discovery the lawyer for the victims asked for certain documents... and instead they were sent a bunch of memes and CP, which pissed off everyone involved (and i'm pretty sure was illegal as all fuck). that was just one chunk of the case delaying his team attempted, which is why the judgment in the case defaulted to him losing back then (these recent hearings were to decide how much he had to pay rather than if he had to pay).
His attorney didn't do that intentionally. That would get him sued and disbarred. The attorney is kind of an arrogant prick and lazy. He probably delegated the task to a new associate attorney, a paralegal or a law clerk who made the mistake.
Thank you, America. Keep up the good work. Stay safe. ♥
"Oh, let's see, they didn't cover this in Legally Blond." 🤣🤣🤣
How yucky of a human being you must be for your own lawyer to consciously betray you in court? Because, let's face it, no one "accidentaly" gives the other attorney damming evidence and makes no move to block or protect it.
Oh god yes @sending shit to the wrong person is why emails from lawyers include a disclaimer.
It's way to frequent thanks to auto fill of email addresses.
As for not responding to the notification that answer is simple.
Jones lawyers main tactic is not to prepare anything and waste time until the other side runs out of cash and will.
ppl upload a lot of stuff to the drop box..
Probably because he couldn't? He might of handed it over because of discovery
I was wondering if Jones could use this to get a re-trial based on attorney negligence or malpractice.
@@WestOfEarth desperate attempt that failed
That Bernie photo would be a dope album cover
Bernies complete lack of ability to produce a tone that sounds like singing makes this even funnier, as an ardent supporter.
Priceless: The look on Jones' face when the prosecution tells him he's about to flush his ass like a top secret document.
Getting rid of every single GOP representative and senator should be job one for all of us
I believe Alex Jones’ lawyer has a conscience and found a way to help the families of the victims….
Yeah this isn't a screw up, its called an honest lawyer and the discovery phase.
I honestly can't think of any other explanation for that. My first thought when I heard the news was...oh, pretty sure they can just ask for it back, essentially. Of course the next thought was, oh, but they didn't after being contacted and informed by the other lawyer...cool, but why? Monumentally stupid or it was done on purpose and I'm pretty sure drumpf has all the monumentally stupid lawyers right now.
Either they wanted to throw him under the bus or they were to lazy to go through 3GB of data and determine/label what was privilege. Also, it may be a gamble they took hoping that the amount of data will overwhelmed the other team (plaintiff). It was a bad mistake or calculation because now those records are on their way to the Jan. 6 Committee and probably DOJ.
@@BM-uk3sh And making thd documents available for J6 committee and DOJ could be the real motive for the mistake. You can't make this stuff up.
@@okkietrooy6841 - Could very well be. As much as I am happy about that glitch those lawyers have put their careers in jeopardy by either incompetency or the boldness of their calculated actions.
Alex Jones deserves to go directly to jail and not collect $200
colbert should had use his Tuck Buckford character again on that part!
He did not commit any crimes so there is no evidence of him needing to go to jail for his 1st amendment free speech rights. He can only get financial censorship penalties by the court. Purely was radical left politics infleunce and not based on the law, as $4 miliion was original and fair judgement and now it changed $47 million out of nowhere for no reason but political backlash that ingored the reasons of the law.
I consign him to eternal perdition!
He shouldn't be able to buy his way out of jail by using finances he receives from idiots . There must be accountability or you'll end up with Trump again and democracy is fucked
Yes, and he'd be forbidden to use a Get Out of Jail Free card, too.
You know your audience is cool when they clap for the irs…..

Just gonna say it now: Tomorrow's gonna be a good episode.

yep! cant wait.
I loved seeing Alex Jones' face when the opposing lawyer revealed that Jones' lawyer had mistakenly sent him his entire phone contents.
Perhaps it wasn't a mistake.
"mistakenly"
@@user-di2on5gl2d no it wasn't. they sent those emails with the understanding that they would not be admitted into court,
fortunately the judge was not buying Jones shenanigans.
...or was it? Maybe his lawyer is sick of dealing with Jones's BS at this point.
There’s no mistake. His own lawyer wanted to send a message that he isn’t standing by this bully. The lawyer took the risk of being disbarred from practicing laws by exposing the jerk to the world.
Amazing, Colbert, simply Amazing.
I love Colbert’s impersonations!
People need to stop thinking they are separate from the environment and the world around them. Just because we built the illusion of not being subject to the whims of this planet doesn’t mean the planet can’t break that illusion anytime she wants.
Yesterday in Oregon a 200 year old tree actually, no joke, exploded because it couldn't withstand the extended 100 degree weather - taking power lines down with it.
The planet will do what it does. It's us and our lifestyle and our sense of permanence that will suffer.
In forestry, the problem question everyone has to deal with "allow nature to do its thing, or maintain it currently?"
Should we reign in humanity to preserve it a bit longer or let it do its natural thing to either die out or evolve?
a gold star for you Kirk.
Exactly. The folly of humans. The earth was here long before us & it will be here long after.
A few George Carlin quotes: "The planet isn't going anywhere, we are." And, "This planet could shake us off like a bad case of fleas." And yes as well, the idea of being separate from everything else is the great illusion, we're part of something much larger than our selves. Like a cell in a leaf on a tree which is part of a forest etc. Like a star is part of a solar system which is part of a galaxy etc. Whether we look in larger or smaller terms there's a continuum of interconnection. It's just when we think on a human scale and we see our corporeal selves we often, erroneously, make that distinction.
Colbert’s impression of what Alex would say is almost VERBATIM what he said 😂🤣
Can't believe his throat wasn't killing him, after that.
Not hard it's Alex Jones after all guy is rather simple y'know lolol
@@wintertrooper7918 he’s not as simple as you’d imagine. He’s a bad-faith actor. That’s his business plan, and as he sells himself he can’t even be ingenious ever. He must always keep up appearances to not lose his audience and grift.

5:38 When you thought of a joke so good you have to wait and make sure people hear it
I could imagine the lawyers reaction to just getting those phone dumps. "There is no way they are this fucking stupid right?"
Overwhelmed with happiness that this bill passed, but super disappointed that the concept of having a planet we and our children can live on has become politicized. But still I’m counting my blessings
It is full of poison pills like the expansion of fossil fuel production on public land for every "clean energy project" the federal government wants to do. This bill is crumbs thrown by Manchin and Corporate Democrats in the hope that people will stop annoying them. Don't fall for the gaslighting by colbert and bougie pundits. Don't be a worthless simp for these scumbags.
Dissapointed, but not shocked that not a single Republican voted for it.
Glad your happy we can pay more taxes for nothing.

They messed up when they allowed Alex to talk about his finances in court/under oath before a bankruptcy trial they knew was coming. Because as soon as that trial proves that they very well can afford that and disproves other bullshit he might have spewed he can be sued for perjury. And that is a crime with a prison sentence. Whoopsidoodle.
It brings me both extreme joy and profound sadness that an ex president was raided by the FBI today! 🤔🤔🤔
It is unbelievable that this country elected that terrorist.
Why sadness? He's an ordinary citizen now, just like the rest of us. Lock him up!
I was sad when he was president.
A criminal former president is still a criminal.
Yes, I understand that mix of emotions. That shouldn't ever have to be necessary, but I'm glad it was done!
Kind of hard to call him a president when we know he lost in the first place. Or the simple fact he was a well known criminal and failure since the 1980s and in technicalities couldn't even become president because of his Draft Dodging...and when you look into it, all he did was ruin a struggling country already, he gave more money and power to big business and big pharma, which has been the #1 problem for the last 50 years. He stope over $1.2 billion in tax payer money. He ruined ties/partnerships with countless countries, while praising and cuddling up to North Korea and Russia. Hes a well known racist. Hes uneducated. Hes a failed con artist. And one of the biggest hypocrites that has been caught doing everything he blamed others for. Texts, letters, ledgers, tweets, phone calls, terrorist ties, etc etc
Probably the first Chuck Schumer impression I've seen. Stephen nailed it, lol!
Colbert's AJ impression is ON THE MO(NEY
I can only imagine that lawyer did it on purpose because he probably has a moral compass, but had to fake a blatant error to make it still legally acceptable
And so that his liability insurance would cover the lawsuit soon to come from Jones who might actually be just barely smart enough to ask a different attorney to file it against his current attorney.
Think Jones lawyer didn’t pay attention. Probably making five grand an hour and he’s euphoric.
Or it's some ploy to get an appeal on grounds of incompetent representation.
@@Shicksalblume Very wise take on this 👍
Wasn’t Jones supposed to turn over that information in discovery or something? If he lied and said he didn’t have it when he did, maybe his lawyer did the right thing. Hey, he wouldn’t want his client to get in trouble for hiding evidence, would he?
Or maybe Jones doesn’t pay his lawyers, like Trump.
I once saw this political cartoon where there was a map of the United States of America. In the image, all of the landlocked states were in red with 1 big word bubble that said "climate change is a myth." Meanwhile, all of the coastal & southern border states were blue with multiple word bubbles that said "we beg to differ" since the landlocked states don't experience the impacts of climate change that the coastal states do. Also, you'd figure that more Conservative Evangelicals would actually care about climate change & it's impacts on society. Keep in mind, The Bible says that since the Earth is God's gift to man it's our duty to take care of it and everyone & everything on it. But, even if they found a way around this, you'd figure that they would at least want to prevent millions of migrants from countries that are no longer habitable from wanting to come to America in the future. Finally, even if you don't support The Green New Deal and similar policies because you don't believe in climate change, why wouldn't you at least support it because it would promote new well-paying green energy jobs here in the United States?
And I'll end with a joke:
Ben Shapiro: If you believe you're in an area that's gonna be flooded from climate change then just sell your house and move.
Responder: Just 1 small problem: Sell our houses to who, Ben?! Aquaman?!
It is very sad "man made accelerated climate change" became a political football in the US, its kinda embarrassing for everyone.
Too many words
Evangelicals would love Climate Change and welcome it even.. Quoting some ramblings from Revelation saying fire from heaven is referring to global warming or some shit.
Well, to be fair, those red states will probably suffer thru drought, rainstorm floods, brush fires, and heatstroke-inducing heat waves.
And Ben needs to be cas-t-rated.

9:57 I love the look of the judge😮 as the camera pans to Alex Jones more than the look of the lawyer knowing he f'ed up.
"Álstublieft" hahahahaahah NICE Dutch word Stephen!!!
I didn't interpret Jones' lawyer's actions as incompetent. I still think there's a case to make that they intentionally did this. The Jan. 6th committee is already looking into them. If I was Jones' lawyer, I would risk disbarment if it meant getting the information out there that the victims and the country needed to get justice.
I think the case would have gone the same anyway, and the only thing that should come out of the texts is a perjury trial
or he's a pillock
Of course, like his conspiracy theories, we can't prove it, but this is one I hope is true.
Like the judge, AJ's lawyer was so tired of AJ's scamming, arrogance, defiance, and lack of compassion/empathy/humanity/benevolence.... any redeeming qualities, rather than just quit being a lawyer, he made the sacrifice play, gave the world a gift and screwed it to the AJ!
Medal of Honor to the lawyer!
I thought it was intentional too. Defense lawyers always advise their clients to tell them the whole truth and not lie to them in order for them to properly prepare for their defense. Once Jones lied under oath, it put the lawyers in a veeerry difficult position if THEYKNEW the truth contradicted their client's sworn testimony. Alex probably dared them to release it and thought he paid them enough not to ---- WRONG!!!!
Corporations will simply 'pay' one of their subsidiaries most of their profits. Oh, minus all the bonus money that will be paid to the executives who arrange the funneling of that money away from the tax man.
Brilliant talented man....so many tasteless jokes which are well received.
Alex Jones's lawyer looks like he is about to snap to attention and say "Huh! What phone? Oops! Oh well. It's only Jones."
I really hope Bernie knows what a hero he really is.
I keep thinking of writing him & thanking him for existing
BERNIE💖🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
"hero"...

It is awesome hearing Stephen Colbert so genuinely happy about the news
He's gonna have a blast tomorrow ^~^
@@AmataTai Truf
It's nice to have some happy news for once!
Let's hope he clarifies the horrible changes manchin & sinema included ie extra gas pipelines and tax cuts for the rich.
Tomorrow's show is going to be one of his happiest ones, I guarantee you.
I live in Australia and have a son with Type 1 diabetes. I could not imagine the anxiety and stress of living in America and trying to provide life-saving medication to my child every single day, at the horrific prices that are gouged from people. Last week I bought insulin for my son, including 2 packets of jelly beans for his hypos. My bill was $6. The jelly beans cost $2.50 a packet. The jellybeans cost more than the 25 vials of insulin in the prescription. I don’t fully understand the medical/insurance system in the US. But I hope one day soon, things will begin to change - just keep voting these republican creeps out.
When someone is on trial for de nation, how are their phone records not available to both sides in the first place?? Fair trial my ass. That’s ridiculous.
Price gouging of pharmaceutical drugs already makes no sense to me; if you as a company charge medications so much that many potential customers can't afford them, then how are you going to make money off those medications in the long-term with only the wealthy top percentage of the population being able to afford them? Personally, I feel the federal government needs to have some form of price control to ensure that we don't pay an absurd amount for prescriptions compared to other developed countries. If a bottle of pills in say Germany costs $6.00, that same bottle of pills shouldn't cost more then 50% extra here in the U.S., which would be $9.00 in this case. I'm not saying pharmaceutical companies don't deserve to make profit for their research and development, but they shouldn't be able to charge insane prices for their life saving products that most uninsured Americans can't afford.
The simple answer is that those who can't afford it will go into debt to not die. Pharmacy doesn't care how the customer pays that debt, since they're already getting paid.
Healthcare is effectively infinite demand to the consumer, so the price only depends on the maximum they can get in loans with absolutely everything (including future potential earnings) as collateral.
There's actually A LOT of reasons capitalism doesn't work to regulate Healthcare prices.
Because....... **enough** folk will that, even at that higher price, the company will make a profit for a few quarters (and will keep sending those sweet donations)
You’re naive.
A lot of things about the Us makes no sense.
In Australia, we have a system called the pharmaceutical benefits scheme which keeps prices on a range of common prescriptions to a mandated low price. Its written into law. All you need is politicians who pass laws benefitting the people, not corporate donors.
I could sense the Eric joke from a mile away, still got me 😂😂😂😂😂
I love that the bill looks good in the headlines, but you have to be employed to qualify, whether you bought energy efficient things or not. That cuts out not only the unemployed who are counted in the unemployment rate, but everyone else who's unemployed and not currently on UI/EUC benefits. So those who are not employed still have to pay full price for energy efficient stuff - and that just consigns the poor to cheap-o junk which can, through other bad manufacturing techniques, expose them to more harmful chemicals than what are typically used in more eco-friendly versions of so many things we all use every day. *It would be extremely helpful to also require companies to offer discounts on eco-friendly items, for those who qualify for Medicaid, SNAP, etc.* That way, *everyone* gets to participate in helping to save the environment, and oftentimes, our own health and that of our families!
Yes. Australia did it by rebates paid to the dealer and calculated in as part of fhe sale price, no reference in the paperwork to your employment or income. P.S. based on reference to energy standards, though!
Stephen Colbert’s monologues give me life. This was definitely a classic one too.
The lawyers "messed up" and the world is thankful for that.
Lol - Stephen filmed too soon to know about Mar a Lago raid?
“Not the Earth, that’s where I keep my stuff.”

I'd love to see Colbert shaming Amazon for keeping Alex Jones on their platform while every other company has ditched him. #BoycottAmazon
