WARING ON AMERICA - BIG PHARMA HOWLS ABOUT LIMITS TO THEIR OUTRAGEOUS PRICES - Here's their daily bullshit, you've heard it before again and again and again and.... you get the point

Big pharma opposition: When Pelosi unveiled the bill in September, pharmaceutical companies were quick to call it “radical.” Stephen Ubl, president and CEO of the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America, said the plan would threaten medical innovation. In fact, a recent White House report asserted that the bill would keep about 100 drugs from entering the market and thus result in “worse health outcomes” and cost $1 trillion in a decade. The nonpartisan CBO said the bill would keep only eight to 15 drugs off the market, and Democratic leaders said the agency raised its estimate of savings the bill could provide the government from $345 billion to $500 billion over a decade.
