Sanders vows to cut prescription prices in half if elected president [View all]
The HillSen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) vowed Sunday to cut prescription drug prices in half if elected president in 2020.
"It is absurd that Americans are forced to pay, by far, the highest prices in the world for prescription drugs while the top 5 drug companies made over $50 billion in profits last year," he said on CBS's "Face the Nation."
"We have a national health emergency when one out of five Americans cannot afford to purchase the medicine their doctors prescribe. Whether the drug companies like it or not, that is a situation which must end, and end soon."
If I were to vote in a presidentialprimary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
