        I couldn’t say for certain, but perhaps fewer to treat congestive heart disease and other coronary ailments

          Other people getting less stuff doesn’t help you though. I wish more drugs were included, but I don’t wish there were fewer drugs covered. I suspect that almost any disease a younger person has, an older person is even more likely to have it.

        Yes. I think they looked at the top prescription drug costs, including volume, and took aim at the ones where discounts would save the most.

      Yep, the same ‘boot strap’ boomers. Even today, being given everything on a fucking silver platter so they can claim younger generations have it so easy and are lazy compared to struggles they grew up with like affordable housing, 1 income households, cheap or free higher education, strong labor unions, etc.
