At least give the option of the old shit

• AuryGlenz 5y ago
  Walmart sells vials of the generic “old shit” for cheap.

    Do you have a source? I wasn't able to find any mention of it on Walmart's website.

  > At least give the option of the old shit It’s available. It’s just far less convenient and much easier to fuck up in a life-threatening way. The insulin price meme is a particularly bad one.

    It is really not. The price disparity between US and rest of world is quite massive.

      The often quoted prices do not take into account the actual price paid by consumers, the type of insulin being compared, or relative purchasing power of the countries. I don't actually know how if insulin is actually all that much more expensive across the world when taking those factors into account. Seems like cherry picking without controlling for all of those factors
