Re: The 114th Congress: Two More Years!
May Heather Bresch burn in hell.
Here's the pricing explanation.
Drug companies can all go **** themselves.When Bresch talked about drug prices and access existing “in a balance,” she was referring to what the pharmaceutical industry calls value-based pricing.
This is what you get when you price a drug not just commensurate with its research and development, production and marketing, but also reflecting the drug’s importance to patients. And that’s a very slippery concept.
What a pharmaceutical company is basically saying with value-based pricing is that a patient’s life would be a whole lot worse without their drug, so that should be worth something, right? Maybe a big something.

Now I understand why Obamacare failed. Value based pricing. Like anyone can place a value on their health.Last edited by ScoobyDoo; 09-23-2016, 12:18 PM.**NOTE: The misleading post above was brought to you by Reynold's Wrap and American Steeples, makers of Crosses.

Re: The 114th Congress: Two More Years!
From Elizabeth Warren's Facebook.
I hope she is able to fix this BS before she's done. Sick of these scumbags getting off.This is just wrong. If Wells Fargo Chairman and CEO John Stumpf can oversee a massive consumer fraud that helped put millions of dollars in his own pockets, and then walk away with a juicy $100 million retirement package, why should we expect any big bank CEO to follow the law? Mr. Stumpf will not be accountable for this scam – as he repeatedly claims to be – unless he resigns, returns every nickel of compensation he received while this fraud was taking place, and faces an investigation by the Justice Department and the Securities and Exchange Commission.**NOTE: The misleading post above was brought to you by Reynold's Wrap and American Steeples, makers of Crosses.

Compensation with options was supposed to solve that problem, it only made it worse with the sociopaths lying to the employees to goose the price, then abandoning ship to leave the workers will no job and a worthless portfolio.

Re: The 114th Congress: Two More Years!
Wells Fargo is now being sued by employees who were fired for not meeting sales quotas during the time these fraudulent accounts were being created. The plaintiffs state that the goals were unjustly set for those employees who refused to break the law in order to meet quotas. It'll be interesting to see how this plays out - or pays out.Originally posted by ScoobyDoo View Post"The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears.

Corporations want specific people as CEO, and will do anything possible to get that person. It's no different than paying someone millions to catch a handegg or hit a ball with a stick.Originally posted by ScoobyDoo View PostComment
