I mean, with stuff like insulin, or cancer treatment, I'm totally against price gouging, but OZEMPIC? That's a voluntary weight loss supplement. As far as I'm concerned, they can charge whatever the hell they please. There's always diet / exercise for free. I say this as someone whose weight has fluctuated quite a bit in my life. Any time I let myself go, I knew exactly what I had to do to fix it. I'm currently bouncing back from a period like that and back to working out 4 or 5 times a week and eating less. Shocker, but I've lost weight and feel better. Ozempic is right there with liposuction. U can do it if you want to be lazy, but you gotta pay. I'm ok with that.
...It's diabetes medication.
