Bernie Goes After Big Pharma

[Minimalist]

Perhaps if the miserable motherfuckers didn't spend so much money trying to protect their little monopoly they wouldn't have to charge so much?

Pharma Running Scared, Injects $17M More to Oppose Prop. 61 ($126M Total); Hoover Poll Shows ‘Yes’ Ahead 51% to 24%

Nov 1, 2016--“Pharma campaign against CA ballot measure tops $126M,” screams the headline in an article in Politico’s ‘Prescription Pulse’ (10/31/16) by Sarah Karlin-Smith and Brett Norman, a dollar amount that now breaks the drug industry’s own previous and shameful record—$109M—for most money contributed to one side of a ballot measure in California history. (The campaign on behalf of Propositions #94-97 in 2008 spent a combined $108.3 million, but that covered four different measures.)
In its Politico posting yesterday on Pharma’s latest contributions, Karlin-Smith and Norman reported that the pharmaceutical industry,
“… has amassed a $126 million war chest to fight off the California ballot measure that would require the state to pay no more for drugs than the Veterans Administration pays.
