    My guess is it has something to do with the already exorbitant healthcare costs Americans are making (causing the asked price not to be an outlier) in combination with the obesity epidemic going on in the country.

    Gotta love the invisible hand of the free market.

      It’s much more to do with the fact that all of those other countries allow the state to negotiate drug prices.

        That might also help a tad.
