You didn't know the GOP has over time made big cuts to NIH funding...which is worse than a cap on the profit side of developed drugs. <br /><br />GOP cuts to public universities that do so much of the research in developing new drugs has been taking huge hits state budget after state budget, worse than you're imagined caps on big pharma. <br /><br />I'm fascinated that public professionals can take big cuts, but cuts to private professionals would hurt innovation. I think caps and cuts to the real innovators at universities and the NIH is the real job killer. Think about it.

Should all researchers of drug companies be capped as well? If you want to see the end of innovation in healthcare, just propose a profit cap or wage cap on the people that are working on the next generation of healthcare drugs and procedures. I can guarantee that the people involved will look for another profession that allows them to maximize their earning potential.
