RE: Big Pharma, Part 1: My Awakening

in #health7 years ago (edited)

I'm originally from Russia and I grew up in USSR where all those things were free: totally free medicine and education.
We paid practically nothing in Pharmacies - say, the most expensive medicine which I ever saw costed maybe $2 per course

You mean in Russia you had free medicine and education?

in USSR
Russia now is slightly different but if you have an insurance (which is paid totally by employer or by gov, if you unemployed or retired) it's still free in all medical facilities, except private hospitals and private dental offices.
