If we're going to live with piles of dead kids in schools, we're going to have to live with assassination attempts.

Americans often think we have two options, politically: big, bad government or little, good government. But Europeans know there is a third option: big, good government.

Eli Lilly and Company apologized for a tweet that was launched by an Eli Lilly parody account which said “insulin will now be free.” However, Eli Lilly did not apologize for the fact that they overcharge and withhold lifesaving medicine to human beings who cannot afford it.

The inventors of insulin sold their patents for $1 in 1923 - almost 100 years ago. It is a crime against humanity that insulin is made by corporations that care only about maximizing profits, not saving lives. Yes. The fake Eli Lilly account was right. Insulin should be free.
