Newsflash: the US drug companies want a certain level of profit. If they make
less on sales to us, the must make more on sales to the Americans (and maybe
Europeans & Japanese).
If the US drug companies lose sales/profit to American consumers because they
sell cheaply to us and we resell to their customers, our prices will go up.
(I'm in Canada for those who have missed that.)
So stop gloating. People in Canada who don't realize this and think it's all a
"big conspiracy" by the US companies miss the point that we, as Canadians,
are part of that conspiracy and our "cheap drugs" won't last if we laugh
too
loudly at the people who are getting screwed (the American consumer).
This, of course, does not include home-grown Canadian substances that our
friends out west provide so well. :-)

This is getting boring and out of hand now, do we have to listen to
this kind of partisan bicking everywhere? Can we just get all get
along in the Fedora World? Leave politics out of it please.
Just my $0.02.
