Скачать или смотреть The great American drug shortage isn't an accident, it's artificial (from Organized Money)

As a follow-up to our series The Prescription Drug Playbook (https://armandalegshow.com/drugs/) — all about how you can get the meds you need at a price you can (maybe) afford — we’re stepping back to look at the big picture. 


From the start of this podcast, we’ve been trying to answer a major question: Why do my meds cost so freaking much? And we’ve highlighted the profit-seeking games that insurance (https://armandalegshow.com/episode/sw...) , pharma (https://armandalegshow.com/episode/re...) , and middlemen (https://armandalegshow.com/episode/pb...) play all around us in more than a half dozen episodes. 


But there’s one set of players on the field that we’ve never talked about: drug distributors, and how they play a role in another reason you may not be able to get your medicine: drug shortages. 


This story comes from our friends at Organized Money (https://www.organizedmoney.fm/) , a podcast about monopolies, from writers and journalists David Dayen and Matt Stoller. 


We think you’re going to like it.
