Instagram - Howard G. Smith MD, AM on Instagram: "US Drugs Cost Half As Much In Canada It’s all over the news. President Joe Biden’s Inflation Reduction Act is initiating the practice whereby the US government will negotiate the prices it pays to buy drugs from our nation’s pharmaceutical manufacturers and provides to seniors with Medicare insurance. The Act also caps the monthly price of insulin at $35, covers the costs of all senior vaccines including the pricey Shingles vaccines, and extracts rebates from Big Pharma for their prices that rise faster than inflation. Fact is that many countries around the world already negotiate drug prices with Big Pharma, and it effects prices you pay at the drugstore big time. Let’s look at some medications you constantly hear hawked on TV, and compare the prices you’re charged versus those our neighbors to the north pay. Ozempic, semaglutide, the diabetes and diet drug, is nearly one-third the price. Humalog and Novalog insulin is nearly 5 times cheaper. Epipen is half as expensive. And it goes on and on. All the result of drug price negotiations. The solution isn’t buying our drugs from Canada. The solution is getting our own drug prices in line. Fortunately, we currently have a government that is trying to do just that. https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2022/10/14/fact-sheet-president-biden-takes-action-to-lower-health-care-and-prescription-drug-costs-for-americans/ https://medcitynews.com/2023/09/us-prescription-drug-costs-more-than-double-those-in-canada/ #bigpharma #price #canada #inflationreductionact #biden #indianpolitics"

Happy 1st Birthday to the Inflation Reduction Act, aka America's Biggest Climate Investment Ever.

The genius of this is manifold but particularly spurring investments in red states that handicap Rs from trying to stop the transition to a economy.

Großbritannien im Wettrennen um neue Industrie

USA und EU locken Konzerne mit üppigen Subventionen. Da ist es für Großbritannien schwer, mitzuhalten. Es mangelt an einer umfassenden Industriestrategie und an Geld. Von Christoph Prössl.

Solar & storage companies have announced over $100 billion in private sector investments in the US since the passage of the (IRA) a year ago, according to a new analysis released today by the Solar Energy Industries Association.

Since President Joe Biden signed the IRA in August 2022, 51 solar factories have been announced or expanded in the US.

Thanks Joe! And thanks to ZERO Republicans who failed to support the bill but show up for the ribbon-cutting.
