Message | if they want to be able to sell the drugs to keep themselves going hten pharmacies will be forced to charge prices that can be afforded by a majority of the population. This bill will reduce the quality of our pharmacies in the drugs they provide. Where do you expect them to find the money needed for research if they can't either charge high prices or get government subsidies. |

Message | This bill will not reduce the quality of pharmacies asshole. Why should we keep prices unregulated? That is pricing people right out of their wallets. You of all people should know that. You want people to go broke so they can rely on us to provide for them? |

Message | i presumed you didn't mean the people because it would have been a stupid thing to say. As it is the policy of this government to provide subsidies for all and free pharmacutical drugs to the needy and maintaing the drugs quality. It will diminish if they don't have the funding to do the proper research. Where do you propose they get this money if not funded by the buyer and the government? http://80.237.164.51/particracy/main/viewbill.php?billid=93273 this shows the current policy status. If both were passed then you would actually have a lower quality of pharmacutical drugs available to the public. As it is the policies encourage a much higher qualities so I don't know how you can make that accusation with any legitimacy. |
