And the corruption that lays within it? We’re so fucking numb to it, we actually tout tiny cracks in that exploitation as victory.”He went on, sarcastically: “Ooh, can it be? The companies we subsidize with billions of dollars are allowing us the privilege of negotiating the price of 10 of their drugs. And 10 is all of them, right? It would be embarrassing if it was a small drop in the bucket and that the American people didn’t expect that we should negotiate for all their fucking drugs! Because we’ve already paid for ’em with our subsidies!”It was then that he slammed his coffee mug down, before inspecting his hand and saying he’d be “going to the hospital soon.” Watch the moment below, just before 17:00.He continued on with his report, holding his injured hand below the desk.
