Prescription drug prices need to change. They prevent use in places like Africa, where their use can be desperate. Although research is expensive, (some government financed) today, the supply of prescription drugs is all about profit – not ethics. How did this happen?  Freelance journalist and contributor from The Nation and The Jacobin Alexander Zaitchik joins Thom to explore this conundrum.  Wisconsin Representative Mark Pocan answers listener questions in a national progressive town hall meeting.
