They're probably afraid of getting pregnant, because that would force them
to deal with their commie socialist pinko medical system. (I thought I'd
save NOYB the trouble of saying this, in case he's busy).



I'm not trying to start a screaming match, but I found something out a
week or so ago that just amazed me.

I take Remicade for my RA every six weeks @ $11,000 a pop - that's
$99,000 per year for very effective treatment for RA.

In Canada, it's $2,450 a pop.

Now, who is subsidizing who? :)


You're making some pharmaceutical executives very rich.
We used to have a seven year patent law for drugs...until that smarmy
%$^#%$ former prime minister of ours made some deal to raise it to 15
years. The trade off was supposed to be more investment in our drug
industry.
