The transcript is from a comedy show that exposes the problem of high drug prices in America, focusing on insulin as an example. The show explains how drug companies, pharmacy benefit managers, insurance companies and the government are all involved in a complex system that keeps prices high and profits higher. The show also reveals how people with diabetes suffer from the lack of affordable insulin and resort to risky measures like rationing, buying from the black market or crossing the border. The show urges Congress to use its power to break patents and lower drug prices, and ends with a quote from rapper Ghostface Killah, who is also diabetic, calling for justice.
