Clinton Proposes $250 Monthly Cap on Prescription Drug Costs


Reuters reports Comrade Hillary Clinton wants to limit competition in the drug industry by putting limits on advertising:
Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton on Tuesday will propose a $250 monthly cap on prescription drugs for patients with chronic or serious medical conditions in a drive against what she calls “excessive profiteering” by pharmaceutical companies.

At a campaign stop in Iowa, Clinton will outline a plan to encourage the development and use of generic drugs and also would end drug companies’ ability to write off consumer-directed advertising as a business expense.

Under Clinton’s plan the monthly cap would limit what insurance companies could ask patients to pay for drugs.
The newest plans from the socialist central planners. No word yet on when Comrade Clinton will go up against the "excessive profiteering" from the higher education racket.
