  2. Big Pharma - Senator Bernie Sanders asks for an explanation as to why certain life-saving prescription drugs have had an extreme increase in price. This is one of those topics that crosses party lines. Should these companies have to explain their pricing. Rick and Ben throw around some ideas to help curb this trend.

Quick Caps:

  1. Media Counter-Attack - In episode 23 Rick and Ben discussed how Nick Sandmann was wrongly portrayed in the media during the March for Life protest. Here comes the defamation lawsuit. Here's to hoping that this makes the media think before they print.
  2. Philadelphia Drug-injection Site – Free clean needles. Supervision. Narcan on site. What could possibly be wrong with this idea?
  3. Fake products on Amazon - Say it ain't so! A problem that has been hurting small business for years is only being recognized now because major corporations like Mercedes are crying foul.
  4. NRA / Kamala Harris – NRA is back to begging for money by using 2nd amendment scare tactics via the Satan-ish Kamala Harris. Hurry up and send now!
