They're not reduced prices. They're normal prices. The cost for insulin in the US is bloated and excessive beyond all comprehension. Framing it as a reduced or discount price in Mexico feeds into the idea that the US prices are somehow reasonable or normal. They are not.

Those were the early days of Reddit. They're long gone now that everyone has joined. Those so-called intellectuals and rowdy revolutionists have now abandoned Reddit. It's mostly just the sheep left there now.

It's the same story with Twitter.

Although in this case they're probably Canadian. So they're Canadian Canada geese.

What last name do you think is neat? It could sound cool, have an interesting meaning or history, etc.
