If the asshole has the power to do this, why wait all these years and FUCKING ALLOW people who could not afford necessary drugs such as insulin, to ration their supply and die?

Fuck you and your bullshit, Asshole...if you could have done it years ago...you murdered people by not doing it!!!

Have only been reduced because Walmart started their insulin program over the counter, $25 per vile - for me is $75 a month against what was $1000 per month.
Not Trump, Walmart

Insulin is a life saving drug. I have several friends who are diabetic. There is no excuse for Insulin to not be provided at a reasonable cost to diabetics. It is essential and necessary.

And on semi automatic weapons, somehow Walmart has become the conscious of the people regardless of the political winds. They know their Customers better than the elected representatives.

"Let there be lower prescription prices!" and...nothing happened again. How do you impose fiat price fixes on a "capitalistic" free market? Isn't that anathema, maybe a bit socialist/communist? Just kidding.

That tweet sure sound like one of those cheesy, used car lot ads in between late night shows on local cable. amirite?

Sure, an Executive Order magically accomplishes this. In an election year, no less.

Thanks for the laughs and the lies.
