You wake up tomorrow morning and find out you own one of the top five BigPharma companies in your entire country, and you're filthy rich,

with more money than you could possibly spend in three lifetimes.



What's the very first cost-related (or price-related) thing that you'd change about your company's product line?

      Wow, not your problem any longer, right?  Good angle, I didn't see it coming.

    That's vague.

    Of course it's vague.  You didn't specify what kind of drugs my company produces, but whatever they are, I would not make them so expensive that the elderly cannot afford them if they take it for chronic illness.

  • I'd close it down and open up a herbal remedy company.

    Nothing.  The products are not the problem.  The politics are the problem.  That is what I would change.  Big Pharma needs to take a look at what it is doing with its money.

    The products are the problem, along with government collusion and corruption.

    (Sigh.)  No one intimated that the products are the problem. The question (which you probably missed) is:

    Cut the price of life saving drugs to cost. Increase the price of the useless stuff to make up for it.
