Socialism vs Capitalism Summed Up By One Brutal Cartoon

Seth Connell reports that there has been a major controversy over the staggering price increase of the EpiPen, a portable drug injection syringe that delivers live-saving epinephrine during a severe allergic reaction.

The maker of the device, Mylan, has been sharply criticized in recent days for this dramatic increase in price, as people literally have their lives depending on the availability of the drug. Since 2009, the drug’s price has increased from $100 to $600.

If it becomes too expensive for someone to afford, and they have a severe allergic reaction, he/she could die from not being treated in time.

Hillary Clinton was one of the most vocal critics of the price spike, slamming Mylan for the increase that will hurt consumers.
