Bernie Sanders goes to Canada with group to buy insulin

Americans have been fed an argument that goes like this, Americans must pay higher prices because the rest of the world can’t and if it wasn’t for the high prices new drugs and research wouldn’t happen. I obviously don’t buy that for a second, but that’s the lie and one many people here have bought into.
Well if you believe that and willingly pay more because you think your the richest country and no other country can afford it, then that makes you a not very bright person. Yes they should make a profit, that’s what they do, but not gouge the shit out of people. But you did say they do get subsidized which is wrong, they just are able to gouge the fuck out of the states because as I said, it’s unregulated. One of the inventors share of the patent for insulin was sold for $1 to the university of Toronto just a fun fact.

I don't really like people who think letting Trump win is a good political strategy.
I can't tell if you just refuse to admit that is not what I said, or you don't understand that isn't what I said. Since I am kind, I will make it easier for you, I said let them try to built the wall because most likely they won't be able to do it and they will look like idiots. They know this and they never intended to built the wall, they just wanted to trick the democrats into taking a stance that their base would see as not protecting America. Democrats got played because of too many people like you. You swing at the foul balls.

Agreed

I didn't mean big Pharma is subsidized, I meant any country that is not America is subsidized is the argument, which again, I know isn't true, but that's the line Big Pharma has sold. That Mexico's cheap medication is subsidized in essence by American high prices. Everybody knows about the patent being sold for a dollar.

Funny. When I said these same things about Trump years ago you were first in line to ridicule me for it.

Better late than never...

Well, maybe it doesn't matter if it's already too late.
Nope. Never ridiculed you for calling Trump fascist.

I have ridiculed you for helping them though.

If you don't slavishly devote yourself to every one of his vapid notions you are labeled the ENEMY and must be treated like shit.

Tells you the level of intelligence you're dealing with.
You Bernie Bros have been attacking every candidate who looks to challenge Sanders, most often with smears, half truths and lies. Warren has surpassed Sanders in many polls and looks to overtake him in support from the left. She's the better leader too, when one looks at her accomplishments and record as a Senator who works well with others while furthering her own goals. She's also said there are other ways to accomplish universal healthcare without Bernie's draconian plan to force people to drop coverage they like and into Medicare.

Is Warren the enemy now?

If Tyler could vote, he would not vote for her. He's made that clear.

See the problem with a few of you is that you have an unhealthy view of the world and you pick “sides” you believe I’m right wing because I believe a few things you don’t agree with. In reality I have always voted Democrat or independent, always been for universal health care, high wages and everything else normal intelligent people would consider a left position. What’s more I also put my money where my mouth is (unlike most Democrats in America who are outdone bigly when it comes to charitable contributions by Republicans) and I own homeless shelters and literally help house thousands of people. Now I have no problem if a few right wing people like my post, much of the world we actually get along. I do have a problem with what I see from you and some others who start with the insults the second you don’t like somebody’s opinion and even calling people pedophiles when you know they are not. I don’t see you as “left” though, I see you just as grown men not acting anywhere near their age on a pot board.
Shut up you right wing freak

Nah, just wondering how far you guys are removed from high school. I’m 50 and I think I just naturally assume people are around my age, but with all the comparisons to hitler going around and Shakespeare maybe you’re younger than I thought.
