In the name of deficit reduction, increasing the cost the consumer pays: http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/front/4958312.html

Before this year, college health centers could buy contraceptives and other drugs at nominal prices from pharmaceutical companies. But the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005, which went into effect in January, imposes a disincentive for companies to sell discounted drugs by requiring those that do so to pay more to participate in Medicaid.

This is why people go overseas when they can no longer pay for their own prescriptions. Its unfortunate how a law can so obviously benefit the corporations and screw the people.
