We needed this yesterday for Housing and healthcare. In fact all necessities should have strict price controls. For healthcare that would be for any established medicines, (i.e. insulin) and not apply to brand new treatments.
- zeroonetwothree 3y agoThis reduces the incentive to produce treatments (like insulin) which seems a poor idea from a health standpoint
- Bilal_io 3y agoThat's a very weak argument. Insulin is affordable in every country that is not the US.
- JoshTko 3y ago1. As mentioned, I'm saying no price controls for new treatments. 2. The fact that insulin pricing spiked in US proves our version of capitalism is broken, especially for inelastic products.
- refurb 3y agoYes, price controls failed horribly in the 70’s but this time it’ll work!
