(Not you.) • Ozempic Price Manipulation: How a drug that costs almost nothing to make was sold for $1,500 a month — until Trump negotiated it to $150 • Insurance Companies Produce NOTHING: "They don't have a factory. They don't have sales. They sell you peace of mind. That's the only thing." • Kerala's Healthcare Future: Blackstone is already investing in our hospitals.
