Bitter Pills

Canadian free-riders. Neo-Democrat votes. Shutting down Dexter shoes. Embouldered Dean. Defending Senate Democrat behavior. Plus more.
p> EXTRA STRENGTH br> Re: David Hogberg's Hooked on Reimported Drugs : /p> p>All good and accurate points. However, the Canadian pharmacies are not selling at a loss. U.S. manufacturers have chosen to sell their products at the lower, government-mandated prices in Canada. The world is full of examples where information and communication technologies are reducing the ability of businesses to price discriminate (see Airline Business, U.S.). In this case a long-standing option available only to border residents (those able to physically go to Canada) is now accessible nationwide. Pharmaceutical manufacturers will increasingly need to "just say no" to the free-riding of Canadian (and other) health systems on their research investments, or become accustomed to pressure on their margins. br> -- Jeff Larsen br> San Francisco, California /p> p> VOTING STATEGERY br> Re: John Tabin's So You Want to Be a Democrat?
