More From Michael K. Simpson

I'll tell you what i'd do if it were up to me: i would establish a strictly controlled distribution network through which i would make most drugs, excluding the most dangerous ones like crack, legally available. initially i would keep the prices low enough to destroy the drug trade. once that objective was attained i would keep raising the prices, very much like the excise duty on cigarettes, but i would make an exception for registered addicts in order to discourage crime. i would use a portion of the income for prevention and treatment. and i would foster social opprobrium of drug use.

However, the medicare prescription drug benefit has changed, and if the nearly 3,000 seniors i have met through 12 town halls can represent a sample of opinion, many seniors do not yet understand the prescription drug program and do not plan to sign up for coverage.
Senior Drug Towns
Sometimes in this whole medicare prescription drug debate, we focus on the prescription drug benefit, and i am glad we do because it is the first time we have ever offered real help to seniors, especially the poor, those in need.
Senior Real Focus
Recently, lobbyists for the pharmaceutical industry wrote a prescription drug bill that increased their profits and did nothing to help seniors. the result: seniors are stuck with a confusing prescription drug plan that does little to help them with their costs.
Senior Drug Confusing
The cost of prescription drugs in this country is far, far higher than in any other country. you may recall that donald trump as a candidate for president talked about how he was going to take on the pharmaceutical industry and it was going to lower prescription drug costs.

In the richest country in the history of the world, this obama economy has crushed the middle class. family income has fallen by $4,000, but health insurance premiums are higher, food prices are higher, utility bills are higher, and gasoline prices have doubled. today more americans wake up in poverty than ever before.

Similar Quotes
When the irishman is found outside of ireland in another environment, he very often becomes a respected man. the economic and intellectual conditions that prevail in his own country do not permit the development of individuality. no one who has any self-respect stays in ireland, but flees afar as though from a country that has undergone the visitation of an angered jove.
Country Men Self
I read in a newspaper that i was to be received with all the honors customarily rendered to a foreign ruler. i am grateful for the honors; but something within me rebelled at that word 'foreign'. i say this because when i have been in canada, i have never heard a canadian refer to an american as a 'foreigner'. he is just an 'american'. and, in the same way, in the united states, canadians are not 'foreigners', they are 'canadians'. that simple little distinction illustrates to me better than anything else the relationship between our two countries.
Country Grateful Simple
Living in the world without insight into the hidden laws of nature is like not knowing the language of the country in which one was born.
Country Knowing Law
Where do real conversations about citizenship occur? in our schools. think about the things you learned in first grade. "my country 'tis of thee," "i pledge allegiance to the flag," "america the beautiful."
