RE:RE:Possible Wed turbulence in pharmaI would tend to agree it's a longshot. But it's clever politics as you know the Republicans will demand to find funding for a $3bil infrastructure bill, and they'll want the porkbelly programs to show folks back home they got new infrastructure. Lowering the cost of the Medicare program achieves that --better looking budget/funding, less of a tax hike, programs back home to dole out favors. So the Republicans will be tempted with the bill.
