US health care is already morally bankrupt anyway.
In the US, the estimated net price (after rebates) of Wegovy is $809 per month. In Denmark, the price is $186 per month. A study by researchers at Yale estimated that drugs like Wegovy can be profitably manufactured for less than $5 per month.
Sounds like we already got the solution…
Weightloss drugs should not be covered. Vegetables should be subsidized.
Why can we, the literal richest country on Earth, not do both? Also, MOST VEGETABLES are already pretty heavily subsidized - crop subsidies make up a substantial portion of a lot of farmer’s earnings.
