They can't now. The system has failed Americans in so many ways. And even the healthcare cost portion, so many people go, well, man, I can't afford preventative care. And to get a comprehensive blood panel and an hour on the phone with a clinician is 500 bucks. And I'm not trivializing, that's a lot of money. But how much do you spend on beer? How much do you spend on your car?

You're in your car a few hours a day. You get one body. 400 trillion to one is what I told the Senate. 400 trillion to one are the chances that God gave us this life today. What are you going to do about it? Are you going to let these people ruin it? and riddle you with chronic disease and illness and your family. It's not about dollars. It's about memories. It's about moments.

It's about having the life you've always wanted and living into your elderly years being healthy and not chronically ill and not on four or more fucking drugs. But the only way we can do that is if this fucking government gets off its ass and starts doing something about what these insurance companies and these pharmaceutical companies are doing to us.

So they're an unnecessary middleman. I think what needs to happen is if you get rid of the pharmacy benefit managers, you get rid of a huge profit center for the insurance companies. You take away their incentive to keep you on prescription drugs. Now they're de-incentivized because you're costing them money. If they don't get those rebates, They're losing money by you being on prescription drugs.
