This petitions goal is to reduce the time it takes prescription drugs to become generic by changing the law from 5 years to 3 years, to limit how much drug companies can charge a pill for a months worth of medication, and to make more current prescription medications generic.
Why is this important?
And that 26k is not a car payment for a Ferrari. That is the broad range that Americans have to pay for non generic drugs. And now the pharmacist lobbyists want to extend the time the it takes prescription drugs from reaching the market from 5 years to 10 years. And if you are like me who has to pay $300 a month to pay for his prescriptions because my insurance will not cover it and can't afford to get better insurance, this is not acceptable. But this is even more absurd for those such as cancer patients or others with serious mental health disorders who have to pay more a month than people in the %1 even make a year.
