Big Pharma

Large pharmaceutical companies who pour more money into advertising, marketing, and political lobbying than they do into research, development, production, and distribution of medication. They also extort patients who need medicine for life-saving purposes into paying huge sums of money at an outrageous markup.

Big Pharma increased the price of Epipens to over a thousand dollars, but they cost only two bucks to make.
