Let’s have a little Econ 101 as I’m ALREADY seeing “big deal” and “but teh prize capzzz” 🙄

Let’s talk about the big announcement today! Huge!!!!

Ok first and foremost he not putting a hard line price cap on meds. It’s quite the opposite. Let me explain

1. What is a price cap. A price cap is a designated dollar amount set by a govt that cannot go above a select price no matter how much the actual cost is on a product. IE if Trump capped gas at .80 cents a gallon but it actually costs 1.00 a gallon making a net profit of -.20 a gallon.

And that’s where scarcity starts coming in and product degradation ( lower quality products ) as companies will start to cut back on production of the unprofitable product.

2. This is what Trump is doing. For example :

If company A is selling med A to China for 2 dollars a pill and company A sells that same pill to the US for 25 dollars a pill , this EO will force that company to sell at the lowest price it is sold at IE 2 dollars a pill

So you then say well Justice , yes that is price caps!

Not so fast!

You have to remember these pharmaceutical companies try to offset losses thru the United States because our politicians are all in the pocket of Big Pharma - and our govt lets it happen…

So what does company A do at this point? They raise the lowest paying countries prices to bring up prices and lower ours - just like he’s doing with the tariffs 🤭 He’s forcing the deal…

Are you seeing it yet?

But like I said , this is just one side of the coin on this deal…

So let’s continue on in the next segment… remember the Pharma lobby I just mentioned?

Let’s keep going 👇🏻 @TaylorTracie76

Ok so we’ve established that these are not price caps . Think of it as “price leveling”

So you ask “Justice, what’s the other side of this coin you speak of on this deal”?

Well I’m so glad you asked 🤭

So we have lower prices now in the US from this deal and the profitability of selling in the US now just took a nosedive and is level with other countries now..

So why is this so important now?

If you haven’t noticed , Doctors get paid on the side to push certain medications… why?

BECAUSE ITS PROFITABLE!!

You take the huge profits out of the pill pushers and there goes the influence of Big Pharma on doctors , and maybe just maybe we can start having doctors think with their brains and not their wallets…

Are you seeing it yet?

No high profit , no push for pharmaceutical reps pushing bonuses for scripts - this leads to more honest doctors willing to actually push being healthy instead of pulling out the RX pad…

But there’s another huge component to all of this you are so missing…

What is it Justice? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Let’s continue on shall we? 👇🏻

Now enters Insurance companies and their premiums…

Ok so we’ve established no price caps and we’re basically forcing Big Pharma on a level playing field with the rest of the world now.

But Justice , really , how does this directly affect me? You ask…

Well, see it’s all a big huge web… the thigh bone is connected to the hip bone 🎶

Imagine this. Your doctor is no longer obligated to push for the meds he’s getting big kickbacks on and he sees that there are more cheaper alternatives out there now so he really starts trying to help you..

What does that do with insurance? Well now that you take your script one of two things is going to happen now. You stay on the same med and it’s 30-80 percent cheaper now and you or your insurance company are now paying less for this!!!

And think frens - if your insurance company is paying 30-80 percent cheaper for meds now, do you think you’re insurance premiums will start to go down? They won’t be able to justify high med costs anymore for high premiums!

And just on this one instance with cheaper meds , what if the doctor starts pushing more natural remedies and starts curing the root cause you your health issues… because remember he’s no longer getting big pharma kickbacks!

What does that mean? Less usage of expensive medical equipment and procedures…

Less doctor visits… which will all lead to LOWER INSURANCE PREMIUMS…😉

Now do you see it yet? Now do you see how Big Pharma is the root cause of our failing healthcare system?

Like a 5D chess player - checkmate 😉

And there’s not a damn thing that Big Pharma can do about it.

You think they will raise everyone’s pharmaceutical costs to the US costs? Laughable

People all over the world would revolt…

Nah, Trump just put Big Pharma in checkmate

Trust the plan…
