Big Pharma rakes in jaw-dropping profits while everyday Americans struggle to afford life-saving medicines. Megyn Kelly sat down with Walter Kirn to expose how drug giants cry poverty while stuffing their pockets with billions – and why the world must stop letting these greedy corporations call the shots.
Pharma companies boast profit margins ten times higher than pharmacies, insurers, and distributors combined. Their 23% net income margin proves they’re price-gouging hardworking families instead of “investing in research” like they claim. These fat cats laugh all the way to the bank while seniors ration insulin.
Industry revenue is projected to hit $56 billion by 2025 as they jack up drug prices. Companies like Eli Lilly and Novo Nordisk expect 20-30% growth next year alone. Meanwhile, Biden’s bureaucrats let China and Europe freeload off American innovation instead of making foreign nations pay their fair share.
Big Pharma blames pharmacies and insurers for high costs – but it’s all smoke and mirrors. Their patent games and monopoly tactics keep generics off the market. They’d rather spend billions on political lobbyists and TV ads than lower prices. It’s time to stop letting them play the victim.
These corporations own the media and political elites through campaign donations and advertising dollars. Networks refuse to criticize drug makers who fill their ad slots. Corrupt politicians take Pharma cash while blocking reforms that would bring prices down. The swamp protects its paymasters.
America shoulders the burden of global drug development while other countries negotiate rock-bottom prices. Why should U.S. patients fund Europe’s socialized healthcare? It’s time for NATO allies to pay their fair share for the medicines our companies create. No more free rides on America’s dime.
Market-based solutions can break Pharma’s stranglehold without socialist price controls. Let’s increase transparency, speed up generic approvals, and ban patent abuses. When competition flourishes, prices fall naturally. Washington must put American patients before globalist profiteers.
The choice is clear: Side with hardworking families fighting to survive, or protect billionaire CEOs exploiting the sick. Real patriots demand accountability from these corporate predators. Our lives shouldn’t be bargaining chips for Wall Street’s bonus checks.
