Will new insulin law be noticed?

The Inflation Reduction Act capped insulin at $35 for people on Medicare. That took effect a year ago.

My opinion of our healthcare industrial complex is unprintable.

The one to really talk to is my husband. He's seen the inner workings of these companies. It's bad.

I know some folks on the inside. Makes me think brothels are moral businesses.

The Healthcare Industrial Complex is now just as greed fueled and destructive to the USA as the Military Industrial Complex. In some ways worse. https://t.co/JxE1U3qO2T
