I think on average it’s like 70k a year or something like that so it’s insanely expensive and each school has like a 2% acceptance rate so its really hard to get into as well

No lmao they are not subsidized by the government at all, there’s like one or two med schools that offer free tuition but that’s it
To be honest, not gonna get too political about it but there isn’t any good reason for college/med school or healthcare to be as expensive as it is

For what it’s worth, we subsidize the insulin costs for several other countries in the world, but the simple answer is this: in America, you need to produce a synthetically identical molecule if you want to sell a generic version of it, and insulin is hard to produce synthetically identical. This means that certain manufacturers can sell alternative versions of insulin and they have a monopoly on those alternatives so they can price gouge us.
