If Kamala Harris pledges to keep Lina Khan in her role as FTC Chair and maybe give her a Gundam, I promise to vote for Harris even harder and even to donate some $ to the campaign

Note that US corporate life and history is full f examples (since US steel) of trust formation and pricing fix. Let's remember that Sherman Antitrust Act was issued in 1890, and still being applied.

It is so obvious. Have a look at prices in Brazil. Where the public system gives it for free for citizens. The richest country is a shame. Pharma reigns free.

In Brazil insulin is given free to all citizens. The price charged on the USA is astonishingly abusive and inflated!
