Remember in 2024 when Democrats pulled Coma Joe from the ticket and wedged Kamala WordSalad in without a real vote, and then progressive libs, NeverTrumps, the MSM, and corporate idjits by the cocktail party-ful (but I repeat myself) all pretended at rapture and joined forces trying to convince Americans that Day Drinking is the new Dementia, but in a good way?
Yeah, I try not to think back on it too often either. But let’s do it anyway, because fast-forward to today and one of those big corporate names is now trying to destroy health care in red states. Gee, wonder why they’d do that? They’re usually such a reasonable crowd amirite??
So Eli Lilly, whose employees donated about five times as much to Harris as they did to Trump, is refusing to sell drugs at a federally-mandated discount to hospitals that disproportionately serve rural, red state, working class voters unless those same hospitals spend loads of time filling out forms and doing a bunch of bureaucratic make-work that Lilly claims simply must be done in order for the company to be sure it’s only giving out the bare minimum in discounts required by federal law.
Lilly doesn’t like that giving out the discounts in the first place affects their bottom line (nevermind that in exchange for doing it they get to bill Medicare and Medicaid for drug sales, guaranteeing them massive government-arraneged profits).
