These are all mostly non-issues outside of the US where virtually all countries have implemented some form of universal healthcare. The US is really unique in this respect, being so affluent and having an almost unbridled capitalism with a huge influence on politics. It's always strange to me to read discussions about healthcare on somewhat 'global' forums like this, because this is a US specific issue. It's healthcare system is such a deviation from what is the norm globally. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_care_systems_by_country#Countries_with_non-universal_insurance_system https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_care_systems_by_country... There is, of course, 'Big Pharma' everywhere. However I think in the eyes of non-US public it's rather about large corporations wielding a disproportionate power. A power that is incentivized by profit motivates which don't necessarily align with the public health interest.
