AOC grills pharma exec about why the HIV-prevention drug Prep costs $8 in Australia costs $1,780 in the USA22h ago ( May 18, 2019 at 11:05 AM ) Gilead makes a drug called Truvada -- AKA Prep -- that was developed at US taxpayer expense, whose patents are held by the US government; Truvada is on track to eliminating the spread of HIV forever (people who are HIV positive but take Truvada are seemingly not infectious), but taking Truvada in the USA (where the patents haven't expired) is incredibly expensive, running $1,780/month, whereas in Australia, it's available as a generic for $8/month.

We know the building was an appropriate tribute to their alum because its elevator does not go all the way to the top.

Critics of the bill say that it will put the payday lending industry out of business and that this will harm poor people, who struggle to get credit elsewhere.

Like The progressive myth that ‘the rich get richer, the poor get poorer’May 1, 2019 at 11:00 AM Socialists like Bernie Sanders tell us that “the rich get richer, and the poor get poorer.”
That’s a lie.
Yes, rich people got absurdly rich. Last year, says Oxfam, “the wealth of the world’s billionaires increased (by) $2.5 billion a day.”
I say, so what?
The poor did not get poorer. Bernie’s wrong about that. The poor are much better off.
