Liberals and their Hypocrisy on Drug Costs
4-22-2009 | Nelliemae

Posted on 04/22/2009 10:11:28 AM PDT by NellieMae

I absolutely despise liberals and their accursed E.P.A. I have really severe allergies and asthma. Because of the libs and their stupid environmental regulations I can no longer get some of the medicines that I need to control my symptoms. One of my medicines (Beconase aerosol) was completely removed from the market and the other (Albuterol) has had the propellant changed so, therefore, it is no longer available as a generic. What used to be a reasonably priced medicine has gone up dramatically in price and the insurance co-pay is 5 times what is was just since December. Thank you E.P.A.!! It is totally irresponsible for the E.P.A. to do this to people. Does the miniscule amount of propellant in those tiny little canisters really pose such a grave environmental threat to justify endangering peoples lives? There are a lot of people out there that depend on these inhalers and it puts a real hardship on some of them to have to unnecessarily pay more just because of these idiotic regulations. Just another case of liberal hypocrisy- I thought that they blamed the drug companies for high drug costs. Liberals caused this.

Can you get your albuterol inhalers at Wal Mart for a low flat fee? There is more than one company offering those inhalers still.

I don’t know, since they changed the formulation I’ve been told that there is not a generic version made and I think that is what Walmart gives the good deals on. But, thanks for the idea. I will check with them.

If you were a druggie, or an illegal alien, or a welfare Mom, there’d be all kinds of money to give you medicine etc...

Too bad you’re just a common or garden variety working stiff type American...

No entitlement for you...

I think that I can get it from Canada. Pretty pitiful, huh?
