And then Big Pharma says, well, we got to charge you more because you're fitting the bill for the rest of the world's innovation. But yet we're one of the most chronically ill societies for a first world country, which is crazy.

Well, so all the folks that trained and taught me were on the payroll for the pharmaceutical company, right? And so when we launch a compound into a marketplace, I had every doctor in a geographic region, what they were prescribing, where I was supposed to go for the day.
