Quote:I understand your argument, it just doesn't make sense. You're advocating for price controls and we know those don't work. Acceptance of the mark up is dependant on the value of the product. This basic economics, not peculiar to healthcare as I've already demonstrated.

You're  not grasping the fact that it's unethical and just flat out WRONG to artificially inflate the value of a pill from pennies or sub pennies  and sell them to the consumer for thousands of percent profit...You can't justify that kind of a markup, it's IMPOSSIBLE...What I'm beginning to think is that you are claiming that by having such a pill available for whatever purpose it serves makes it THAT valuable which is pure horse [BLEEP]. There is no way to justify that sort of markup and make any validity to the argument...I'm advocating anti GREED measures and anti GOUGE measures because that's all that percentage of markup really is...They could sell for a handsome profit at $2-$5 but instead their fat fingers price them at $26...GREED and value are not the same thing
