Yep. Medical patents in this country need major reform, I've said it before and I'll say it again that many 'privatized' and patented medical innovations in this country owe their success to public funding and efforts.

But more on topic, based Biden win. As usual with Biden, he's got good instincts but needs to go further.

They should be shouting this from the rooftops. The price of hearing aids is a major issue for millions of older people in this country. This is will be a huge relief for them (I know it will be for my older family members).

Insulin is the only major drug not have generics.

Cholesterol drugs do.

No need to shout. People can get hearing aids OTC now. Wink

It's a great policy but unfortunately very likely to fall on deaf ears.

You can tell Democrats are feeling better after the last few weeks because we're actually making jokes again.
