Are these other countries producing their own insulin? Or importing it from the US?
I can imagine pharma companies retaliating against, say, Canada, by refusing to sell Canada insulin (or only at US-equivalent prices), unless Canada bars export of insulin to the US. Maybe the pharma companies would blink and not murder a bunch of diabetics? I'm not so sure about that; I have a hard time believing that the execs have souls.
Still, I agree we should allow drug import. The FDA is totally captured, though, so they'd try to block it. And there's no will in Congress to do anything - see the EpiPen pricing scandal.
