Today's rant
The prices of prescription drugs are out of control. I almost never go to the doctor (ignorance is bliss), but I recently got prescribed eyedrops from my eye doctor since my contacts were bothering me. I have a high-deductible HSA health plan, so I pay full price for drugs with a tax free account, and I don't pay a premium. The downside is that I get to find out what drugs really cost. For an extremely tiny bottle of eyedrops, I paid 63 Dollars! Here's a picture so you can see just how tiny the $63 bottle of eyedrops is. Plus, I had to wait almost a half hour for the pharmacy to get it ready even though it is obviously pre-packaged. Ridiculous. It almost makes me want to vote for Hillary, but not quite.
