How Big Pharma Legally Robs You
Big Pharma isn’t just making medicine; they’re building legal fortresses to keep prices high while patients are forced to choose between life-saving drugs and their rent. We’re pulling back the curtain on the "legal heist" of American healthcare, from the 1,200% price hike on 100-year-old insulin to the "patent thickets" that block cheaper generics for decades.
We break down the devastating reality of drug rationing, like the story of a 26-year-old who died less than a month after aging out of his insurance because his insulin cost $1,300. You’ll learn exactly how companies use "evergreening" to make tiny, meaningless changes to a drug just to reset the patent clock and keep competition off the market. We’re moving past the industry talking points to show you why the same exact pills are sold for a fraction of the cost in Europe and Canada, and how new laws might finally start to crack the monopoly.
