Why is it that the Seniors can get their drugs cheaper through Canada? Because the drug companies are greedy, that's why.
actually the return on investment is much smaller for the drug industry than many others, it takes many years, and cutting the drug-company profits would only lead to fewer drugs.
Perhaps you could explain to me why they want to stop the prescription drugs that are sold in Canada from coming back to the US?
because someone has to foot the bill for the cost of drugs: the development.
In America we have a longer wait period because of the FDA, in America we have higher standards, in America we have more money to pay for our drugs, and in America we foot the bill and that those drugs can be sold at a discount rate in Canada is part of the American willingness to step up to the plate and shoulder the burden when socialist and third-world nations can?t or wont.
All the Bush people out here would put flag burners in jail without a trial if they could.
that?s not what we see when it comes to conservative supreme court nominees, but changing the constitution to fit a social agenda is consistently the realm of liberals.
Since the top 2% have over 90% of the money they should pay more tax and quit whining about it.
having money and using it to gain wealth are two different things. Wouldn?t a flat tax with a tax on using money to gain wealth be the most fair?
The upper class keeps making more and the poor keep getting poorer so why should the taxes go down in %'s?
because trying to destroy those who earn their way up, even through generations of building, isn?t the freedom that America stands for, it?s the communistic reasoning that allowed for the totalitarian states of the world that our freedom has over come.
What about poor people who can't afford to see a Doctor or get there prescriptions filled?
I?m poor, and experience high medical costs every day, but interestingly enough for life-saving drugs my dad?s never had to worry, God bless America.
I have heard so many people say "that can't happen today with all the safe guards they have" that it scares the bejeebies out of me. Murphy's Law.
certainly the stock market is imaginary money, built on the imaginary money in the banks, but as long as we think happy thought?s we?ll all be fine.
I'm 50 years old and I can tell you from my personal experience that the Republicans say they can fix all our problems, they just need you to give up some of your rights.
not federally, as they are for state?s rights.
After what Bush has done to the deficeit your going to talk fiscal responsibility?
sure because inflation is more of a tax on those that hold money than those that earn it and an anti-tax on those who owe money. I don?t like the deficit spending, but I like high taxes less.
I thought they wanted to work and live here. After making the "big bucks" for 10 or 20 years, then they can retire in style back in their own country where $1 there is like $10 here.
it?s supposed to be 3 year work programs that they apply for a renewal for, if they return they get all the FICA that was with healed, if they get an extension they can work to eventually become American citizens and have their taxes credited towards our system.
So yes, they can work 3-9 years here, go home, and build their own nations with the money they paid in over the period. I was very upset about it to start, but it?s honestly the best solution I?ve ever heard.
You seem to forget who was selling Iraq arms when they were at war with Iran
I didn?t forget, we gve them weapons to help defend against the religious extremist Iran. He was quite useful in keeping the whole of the middle east out of the hands of islamofascists, and because of that his country was a prime target to install western style debauchery.
IMO, if the Republicans would have been smart enough to give McCain the nomination I would have voted for him.
I think we can all agree he?s a good man, but not strong enough against abortion for my side.
