Drug combination prevents HIV infection in monkeys

And now, this story as if it was written by a liberal:

The CEO's at "big drug" announced a discovery that might allow them to make their pockets even fatter feeding off the poor and needy. Today atop their big corporation building, one of the billionaire CEO's of a major drug company seemed very excited that the billions of dollars of research they conducted over the past 20 years might have finally paid off. Oh, it's going to pay off, for him and all his rich stock holders.
Even though this pill might end AIDS as we know it, most patients will not be able to afford it, due to rising cover charges at gay bars.
Will the President step in and create another federal entitlement program to save all these people who have HIV?
Of course not, because GWB wants people with AIDS to die, just like he does all the soldiers in Iraq.
So now, not only will the President have the blood of innocent Hamas, Arab, and Iraqis on his hands, but now he will have the sick, infected blood of everyone with AIDS on his hands too.
And make sure he doesn't get the pill to stop himself from getting HIV.
Bono would be very disappointed....

And now the conservative version:

If they hadn't been gay, they wouldn't have gotten AIDS in the first place.

You missed half of it jim. You had the conclusion. The Beginning is, "What a waste of billions of dollars that could have researched more hair grow gels or boner pills for us rich white guys."

That does seem to be half the commercials on the talk radio shows...along with sleep comfort..

Point of the post:
Liberals bitch about the cost of drugs...saying drug companies are evil...well, this is why they charge so much, because they are doing research to cure new diseases...

I understand that the drug companies need to make money for R & D. But if you favor the free market system, how can you defend the provision of the medicare drug bill that forbids any negotiation on drug prices?
