Stossel said that with price rise that its time for a competitor to make something better or different and then compete .
Re: EpiPen
The CEO of Mylan is a Senator's Daughter - I wonder if that has any bearing on the gouging ?
It is a felony to monopolize, price fix, or eliminate competitors, must be some Guberment Involvment on this deal.

Re: EpiPen
anyway , i can still recall . I was 5 or 6 , we got pizza and i got sick and broke out in hives . Musta been in 1955 or 56 . My parents thought that it was the 'eyetalian' pizza sauce or pepperoni as they put me to bed . Maybe they called the Doctor but maybe not as they put me to bed . Anyway , i just got over the episode , hives went away and i have been eating pizza once in a while these last 60 years . ------------------------------------------------- i can see in a few years people feeling abused because they can't afford a high tech pocket ' heart starting' gadget or defibrillator or instant brain surgery kits for their kids or significant others .
Re: EpiPen
We all need to come to the realization that people work hard to invent things, or invest their money to develop things..so they can eventually make a profit.
Then the loons/entitlement fascists come out of the woodwork to proclaim everyone deserves one of what that person worked so hard to develop.

I am surprised that you don't know that capitalism and greed are mutually exclusive!

There is probably a reason that a competitor injector does not exsist -'and that reason is probably the FDA.

I picked up a bottle at the vet today, enough for 20 people twice, 12 bucks. Just what is the deal?

Re: EpiPen
I have no words strong enough to decry this company. I'd like to smack that smile off the CEO's face though. This is a life-savor for many people. Maybe Ralph hasn't see a severe reaction but I'm pretty sure some of us have. Many people aren't on Obama care (and I don't know if any of their insurers cover it). I don't know if ours covers it. I'm allergic to red wasps. My physician suggested the epipen. However, until yesterday, I hadn't seen one around here. I just gave it a wide berth. My daughter does have one because of having a citrus allergy (my er, uh, gift to her). She had orange juice all her life and one Sunday morning it reared it's ugly head. Fortunately, her husband is a police officer and realized exactly what was happening. Her throat swelled so fast, no time for an ambulance...Central Tx hospital was just a mile or two away.
