Until the lobbying from the DRUG CARTEL isn't allowed to give money and the FDA stops taking payoffs to keep the market from competition to say you are going to fix healthcare is an out right LIE!



Pharmaceutical companies spend big in Congress, while increasing drug prices

Meanwhile, Congress has punted on new legislation that could have reined in prices all the while accepting campaign contributions from big pharmaceutical companies. Members of Congress have received $22,109,838, according to campaign contributions since 2015.

Near the top of that list was Washington Senator Patty Murray, the top Democrat on the Senate's committee on health. Murray received $292,309 for her re-election this year.

Her take only trailed two other Senators, Sen. Bernie Sanders, a former Democratic presidential candidate; and Sen. Richard Burr, R-N.C., a state that's home to a couple hundred drug related companies.
