But wait - I thought it was a *global* enconomy. That we should
be enjoying the benefits of lower costs.

Modern economy *is* global.

Um, global yes, for the Merck Medco to sent their manufacturing
overseas. Global, no, for the US citizen who wants to purchase
drugs from the same company at their foreign prices.

That was my point. The administration has responded to the
drug lobby by rigging the shell game.
