Thanks, Biden.
cry me a river you whiny snowflake.

people can't pay for insulin because of big pharma greed (and die for it) and you said nothing.
you have to pay a dollar extra per gallon of gas and you throw a fit.

it's ok for the government to fix prices when it affects you. The rest may go to hell when it doesn't.

Trump had the insulin problem fixed until Biden took over:

So now everyone with insurance pays $35 a month. And you think that's worse than only medicare oldsters getting that rate?

insulin problem "fixed" only for the diabetics enrolled in medicare

Don't forget that over 50% of the cost of fuel is goobermint tax, and you accuse the fuel companies of greed, at least they produce something.

Most of that is usage tax, meant to repair infrastructure and the right even voted against that.

60-something. And yes, I got Type 1 at 23.

Biden actually "fixed" the insulin issue because I've been paying $35 a month for the last year or so. For me, that's 2 10ml vials. It was all over the map before that. At one point, I was dishing out $100 a month for the same amount of insulin. $50 a vial.


"Don't forget to mention just how many republicans voted against capping insulin cost"

Indeed. Didn't stop any of them from touting the bill (as if they were responsible for it) in their campaign literature.

I wanted him to say it... I wanted him to type that information while completely oblivious to how stupid his "Trump fixed diabeetus" comment was. I wanted him to dumbly add "so what's your point in asking this"
