I don't know how somebody who has cancer pays $150,000 for a drug.

We need profound change in the industry and in PBMs.

We are spending twice as much per capita in healthcare in this country.

Why are we as Americans paying the bill even though it is only 15 percent of our GDP?

They are sick and tired of paying outrageously high prices, not only for insulin, but for other products as well.

We end up paying the highest prices in the world for virtually every brand name prescription drug on the market.

In terms of insulin, let us not forget that a vial of insulin, and this is a vial of Humalog right here, costs less than $10 to manufacture, as I understand it.

I went with those people in order to purchase insulin in Canada, which they were able to do for one-tenth of the price.

What I promised them is that they are not going to have to go to Canada or other countries to buy a lifesaving product.

People are getting fed up with it. I got fed up with it 15 years ago.

If we paid the same prices for prescription drugs as major countries around the world were paying, we could save over $1 trillion in 10 years.

1.3 million Americans in the richest country on Earth cannot afford insulin.
