Pharmacuetical companies need to recoup their investment in research and development which contributes to the high drug prices. It takes years for a drug to go from the labs to the patients who need it. The one thing that adds a tremendous amount to the price of drugs is advertising.

I nearly fell on the floor a few years ago when I had to pay for medicine I needed because the insurance company didn't cover it.
I have no problem with free enterprize companies recouping development costs, etc.

However, I believe those costs should be shared equally and not come mostly out of US pockets.
