What solutions are possible-to win affordable medications for all Americans? Some drug makers' magical solution is to promise that new drugs will reduce costs of hospital and doctor care. That's easy to promise but hard to deliver, on average.
But unlike some governments elsewhere, our government has protected only itself alone. In so doing, it leaves the drug makers free to raise prices on the rest of us in order to reach their revenue targets. The drug makers claim they set prices to cover research costs. That is not true. They set the prices that they believe will maximize profits, and that's what their stock holders expect. In 1998, the drug makers' profits averaged more than one and one-half times their research costs. And the drug makers are unwilling to identify any ceiling whatsoever on their profits-the level of profit beyond which no more money is needed to finance vital research. Similarly, the drug makers are unwilling to identify any floor on their profits-the level of profit below which vital research would suffer. Their position is simple: more is better. That would make sense only if the drug makers operated in a competitive free market. How can we have affordable medications in the US with this happening?
