[The First Aria]

The big pharma vs insurance company argument is moot when it comes to prescription drugs anyways, as they are one and the same. Every single insurance company out there is part of a large conglomerate that includes at least one and often several other pharmaceutical companies. They usually own the only providers you're allowed to visit, for example, while using their plan. If not outright, they at least have a decent bit of controlling interest. They also frequently are in close partnership with at least one pharmaceutical producer.

When it comes to the US medical industry, the entire industry is so convolutedly cross-owned that there is NO differentiation really.

Or they get substantial kick backs! !
