Dope Tech Episode 2

<<@RMLane-os8ci says : Our country subsidizes the costs so they can charge more.>> <<@devinlor8176 says : 👎 NO company.. or corporation should be allowed to give a single penny. To any political anything. Only ( non profit 📈 😉 charity.>> <<@andremorse9282 says : Why cause they passed Obama care, which sucks the phallus of the insurance companies. Just like all politicians do, to get their bribe money. How much stock did AOC, and Pelosi’s husband buy or sell?>> <<@97140604 says : Now, call out Commie-la for wrecking our economy.>> <<@SuperToughnut says : When does doing nothing become tyranny?>> <<@melanieevans5597 says : What Bernie is doing is from an old socialist textbook , it's nothing new His trying to sound and act like He cares. We've seen that , politicians visiting companies trying to force and fix prices . These populist public gallery shows irritate industry and lead to companies downsizing. Executives don't really have the time to entertain an idle politician.>> <<@bryannahasisboring says : Anna's pessimism is getting really annoying 😒 bernie does the best thing any politician in his shoes would do to fight drug prices even drawing attention and the conversation to it and she's like "I wish he would attack his colleagues more on this" can you just be glad he's attacking CEOs. I swear she has no concept of teamwork. The only reason he's on that committee is because he can work reasonably well and play nice with the democrats that keep him there>> <<@ChristopherJackson-n7t says : What would we do without Bernie?>> <<@timgora9116 says : The politicians in that room are like SpongeBob looking for the maniac>> <<@JellyS13 says : We need more politicians like Bernie Sanders>> <<@charleediaven6278 says : I was getting emails for donations from Chuck Schumer more than a month ago. He was bragging about how they lowered drug costs. Another lie down the pipeline. More than a month ago when there was a vague promise for 11 drugs out of thousands.>> <<@konstakuorikoski6512 says : How much is US government paying for those drugs in research funds? Shouldn't your business politician negotiate terms where government either gets profits that match that investment (as what happens in EVERY OTHER investment situation), or can negotiate fair price since they are primary partner for the company?>> <<@StinkyMcdrinky-y9e says : List price isn't what people actually pay...>> <<@ernestvenn8291 says : Isn’t this also the drug that Oprah Winfrey which prescribed for her weight loss?>> <<@michellerodrigues says : developing country in which you can get it free because the government invests in medication for their population insted of wars.>> <<@marlagorena972 says : Ana, the j in Lujan is pronounced like an h.>> <<@backtotherootsracing7564 says : Privatization kills.>> <<@nabils6593 says : This is why senior citizens come in tourist buses to buy prescription drugs into Canada. Tourists on prescription drugs tour and take drugs as souvenirs. It's unbelievable that seniors go through that trouble to be able to afford meds and live. Bernie exposes pharma mafia. American government is too busy supporting genocide and not worry about American citizens who need help. American tax dollars support Palestinian genocide and land grab by Israeli government. Nazinyahu and Zelenski both taking lots of money that could've prevented lots of suffering to American citizens. זו הסיבה שאזרחים ותיקים מגיעים באוטובוסי תיירים כדי לקנות תרופות מרשם לקנדה. תיירים עם תרופות מרשם מסיירים ולוקחים תרופות כמזכרות. זה לא ייאמן שבני גיל הזהב עוברים את הצרה הזו כדי להיות מסוגלים להרשות לעצמם תרופות ולחיות. ברני חושף את מאפיה של הפארם. הממשלה האמריקאית עסוקה מדי בתמיכה ברצח עם ולא לדאוג לאזרחים אמריקאים שזקוקים לעזרה. כספי מס אמריקאים תומכים ברצח עם פלסטיני ובחטיפת קרקעות על ידי ממשלת ישראל. נזיניהו וזלנסקי שניהם לוקחים הרבה כסף שיכול היה למנוע סבל רב לאזרחים אמריקאים. هذا هو السبب في أن كبار السن يأتون في حافلات سياحية لشراء الأدوية الموصوفة إلى كندا. السياح الذين يسافرون بأدوية موصوفة يأخذون الأدوية كتذكارات. إنه لأمر لا يصدق أن كبار السن يمرون بهذه المتاعب حتى يتمكنوا من تحمل تكاليف الأدوية والعيش. بيرني يفضح مافيا الأدوية. الحكومة الأمريكية مشغولة جدًا بدعم الإبادة الجماعية ولا تقلق بشأن المواطنين الأمريكيين الذين يحتاجون إلى المساعدة. تدعم دولارات الضرائب الأمريكية الإبادة الجماعية الفلسطينية والاستيلاء على الأراضي من قبل الحكومة الإسرائيلية. نازنياهو وزيلينسكي يأخذان الكثير من الأموال التي كان من الممكن أن تمنع الكثير من المعاناة للمواطنين الأمريكيين. Por eso los ciudadanos mayores vienen en autobuses turísticos a comprar medicamentos recetados para entrar en Canadá. Los turistas que hacen viajes con medicamentos recetados se llevan los medicamentos como souvenirs. Es increíble que los mayores pasen por ese problema para poder pagar los medicamentos y vivir. Bernie expone a la mafia farmacéutica. El gobierno estadounidense está demasiado ocupado apoyando el genocidio y no se preocupa por los ciudadanos estadounidenses que necesitan ayuda. Los dólares de los impuestos estadounidenses apoyan el genocidio palestino y la apropiación de tierras por parte del gobierno israelí. Nazinyahu y Zelenski se llevan un montón de dinero que podría haber evitado mucho sufrimiento a los ciudadanos estadounidenses.>> <<@imbalancedstatus8824 says : Dog and Pony Show is what is going on>> <<@Tobias_MZ says : Very good performance by the Novo Nordisk CEO! The high prices in the USA are a consequence of the installed system - installed by politicians. Will they find a lot of people in the USA who pay the 969 dollars? I think not ... But it is allowed to give a credit card or two or three to the people with a very high interest rate and nobody talks about this ...>> <<@S58PSHIFTING says : Bernie Sanders should've been president of this country and yet lucky to the repubes he didn't make it but now we all know he should've already been our president. Also you cannot at all trust the germans as i won't even capitalize their origin as they are like the chinese and can't be trusted, they are only going by the rules because they have no choice and even that they can change as they to me are on a separate chapter with the russians and are making some type of deal because it's to their interest also they are making separate nuclear arms that are already here in America, these killers from back in the day never died and have tricks up their sleeves we are aware of well some of us are, the germans again like the chinese can't be trusted and have to be forced to do things the right American way if they want to do business here in America but they want to be slick, all we have to do is knock off one company of cars they sell here in America to make them poor, imagine we knock off all of their cars and parts here in America what!!!! what will happen is we will start making german parts here in America opening up a new business for us and boom for all BMWs from 2025 on down we will make their parts and maybe more affordable as anything after that we will not take in till they do the right thing and stop robbing America for everything that they sell and Harris better jump on this, how is it even possible for them to be charging us that much money as our orders are 10 times their order and should be 10 times cheaper, like illegal drugs the more you buy the cheaper it is well these are drugs but they are robbing because they are legal but their dealing are illegal us and we should murda them financially in our America as we are the most powerful country in this world and need to act like it, taking away all of their privileges and 10 timing whatever we sell to them, this is one thing i know for a fact America can handle without trying so Harris and Walz add these fools to your promises to do act. Oh and that last question on how would the world know what other countries are paying for it well just like the ingredients it should be posted on the bottle the options of purchase from every country selling it cheaper and those selling it more expensive so we can know just in case we ever travel to that country we can get it for those prices like come on theirs an answer to all the questions. GOD BLESS AMERICA AS WE CAN DO ANYTHING THAT OUR ENEMIES COULD DO SHOULD ANY COUNTRY DECIDE TO BE OUR ENEMY AND IF SO LUCKY FOR US WE'RE NOT THEM.>> <<@muc8000grad says : THE AMERICANS ARE IN TOP ONE OF. OVERWEIGHT POPULATION IN THE WORLD 🌎 ///// So easy to understand!!! Ask how much its cost in JAPAN ? Its all about the higher is the NEEDS OF THE COUNTRY.. higher gets the price of product!>> <<@muc8000grad says : In a Country where population are overweight this medication have to stay high priced “ who can eat / spend too much can also pay too much ! Americans are richer population! Thats isn’t for homeless habitants around so many states in usa. 🇺🇸>> <<@jensmadsen9811 says : What John and Bernie says is not true. It is not 986 vs 186 in Denmark. 186 is the ACTUAL price that I pay at the counter in Denmark BUT the rest is paid by our health care system through taxes. For 80% of Americans the ACTUAL price is 25 at the counter and the rest is paid by the insurance. So it is 186 vs 25 (for 80% of Amaricans). Why do I as a Dane have to pay more?! Bernie's visualization is really really misleading. And Bernie knows this but he does it anyways.>> <<@_thatGuy_87 says : About 17:20…. This is incredibly disheartening 4/5 of the top leeches are Democrats… just wow..>> <<@toriarose says : Commenting at 1 : 23 ... It's garbage and it's not saving people, it's killing them. What happened to "who do you trust"? Instead of further advertising these fake meds, why don't you speak more about what is truly harming/killing our people? Fake food, ha. (And of course all the toxins in the food, water, air ... often from the same profiteers) They get our children hooked on fake food, gets 'em unhealth and fat. And then? They have the "cure"? Ozempic. Why does it create weight loss? Because it makes 'em feel SICK. Brilliant! LOL. Research shows that even in diabetics it significantly increases their chances of getting the big C (thyroid). Let it sink into your brain, babe. If "medicine" is going to kill you in a few years or plummets your quality of life (you feel sick on it all the time), then it isn't truly medicine. Here's a statement I promise you can trust: Hippocrates: “Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food." Our food is trash (not real food), our "medicine" is trash. And yet you think you're being helpful to talk about these profiteers charging more and more for their trash. You're doing nothing. But giving 'em free advertising. That is, you're part of the problem. Oh, yep, just like during the you-know-what years. If you truly care about sick and obese people, do the research. Discover that the profiteers intentionally get children/people addicted to their "food." And sometimes it's just the effect of eating fake food. So reversing that is job one. And their fake meds ain't gonna do that. If you don't actually care enough about people to make that kind of effort, then at least find channels that will help them with it (lillie kane, thomas delauer, paul saladino, etc) and direct your viewers to them.>> <<@scottspa74 says : Jon's got it exactly right! Please, everyone share this!>> <<@Scarly373 says : If people weren't seeking out ozempic for aesthetic weight loss, prices wouldn't be as high. Supply and demand. Most of the drug and semalglutide are being bought by people who just want to lose 20-40 lbs, rather than diabetes. I agree there should be caps. I agree they're charging us more to make up for what they're not charging other countries.>> <<@cYYAN88 says : It can never be the responsability of a danish CEO to fix the American system with PBMs taking 74 cents to the dollar lmao.>> <<@paulbaginski2854 says : This is why Sanders is the biggest dick in government history. They charge that because they can dickhead.>> <<@Spyrit2011 says : These diabetic medications should only be given to diabetics. The bottom line they raise prices and sell it to overweight people, these prices effect people with type 2 diabetes. Another issue with these diabetic medications is their side effects, like depleting nutrients in the body, which no doctor ever talks about. I take metformin this is what it does, Metformin therapy has been shown to deplete vitamin B12, and sometimes, but not always, folic acid as well. No doctor gives nutrient supplementation for this loss.>> <<@mattblair2 says : I find it amusing anytime Bernie goes after Big Pharma. He didn't hesitate to accept their money during the 2020 election.>> <<@RAralar says : That’s because there are price controls in Canada>> <<@Budmanthegreat says : How many of those senators own stock in that company>> <<@thorsteinboserup-v4o says : The funny thing is that Novo Nordisk’s majority shareholder is a non-profit charity organization, which donates more than all American pharma companies combined. So, for the most part, their revenue benefits sick and needy people, R&D projects around the world. Just fix your stupid health insurance system, and then prices will come down. Americans want free competition everywhere, except when it comes to insurance. This alone is the reason for the high prices of medicine. It's kind of funny that not a single American manufacturer volunteered to participate in this hearing like Novo Nordisk did. The medicine in question was invented in Denmark with non-American funding.>> <<@margaretmacneill3133 says : I live in Belgium and I take 5 prescriptions daily. I just purchased a years supply of five drugs and my total copay was €120 (€10 per month)!!!>> <<@lours6993 says : No mystery: the US healthcare system is a grift, making negotiation of drug prices impossible to maximise price gouging.>> <<@jetind says : Your own insurance companies and PBMs doesn't care about their own countrymen, only money - so why are you posturing and blaming a foreign company? Not their fault that entrance to the american market are guarded by those capitalistic money-grubbing leeches - none of which is present in this hearing, I should add. Why?>> <<@ScottZupek says : give me a break my oral chemo therapy medication(sprycel) for leukemia is 22k a month and the insurance companies don't allow co-pay cards to go towards my 7k annual deducitble and max out of pocket. ALL THE PHARMA COMPANIES are in bed with the insurance companies. because Insurance doesn't want to pay their fair share. THis has been going on for 5 years. NOTHING IS CHANGING. If anyhthing the US REWARDS this behavior.>> <<@Cuddly-Cactus says : "We charge you more because your government allows us to!" Very true, and I love Bernie "I wrote the damn bill" Sanders, but sadly America doesn't even deserve him. Far too many people vote for Republicans which means they are voting against their own interests. It's just shameful and beyond insane. We The People need fight the corruption and division.>> <<@joka5345 says : All talk bernie biggest fraud EVER>> <<@DavidCall-nk9ct says : Driving up healthcare premiums. The media doesn’t show this because big pharma’s “advertising” (bribing) them.>> <<@Donkim420 says : Just to be clear.. the company is called Novo Nordisk... NOT Ozempic....>> <<@Donkim420 says : Just to be clear.. the company is called Novo Nordisk... NOT Ozempic....>> <<@SSJBartSimp says : Tim Kaine>> <<@Valariel says : They charge as much as they are allowed to. It’s simple. Those foreign countries don’t permit them to charge the insane prices we allow. Change the laws.>> <<@Robert_Douglass says : Tax incentives for businesses that invest the majority of their profits in improving the plight of the less fortunate by contributing to a #UniversalBasicIncome.>> <<@shirazismail6876 says : American politicians have gone insane. They are sending billions to murder people in other countries but will not subsidize the most needed drugs. Thats nuts>> <<@jVorensky says : MEN! PLEASE PAY ATTENTION! Harris/Walz administration is committed to offering $50,000 for start-up businesses! They are committed to a $25,000 investment for first-time home buyers! Taxes incentives for Business. Cut red tape that prevents home building. $6000 for a newborn child, Trump wants tariffs that will increase taxes for families by $3900. The Tariffs will affect the supply chain, and businesses will INCREASE PRICES TO CONSUMERS, increasing inflation! REMEMBER, TRUMP KILLED THE BI-PARTISAN IMMIGRATI0J AGREEMENT WHICH WOULD HAVE HIRED1500 BORDER PATROL OFFICERS AND ADDITIONAL JUDGES AND LIMITED IMMIGRATION! LOST 200,000 manufacturing jobs. MEN VOTE HARRIS/WALZ>> <<@Ronnie-z7t says : The PBMs are to blame for the high prices. Fix your system before you point fingers>>
