Is Donald Trump lying like a rug on the cuts of drugs prices? Not at all, he’s just a dickhead in mathematics. He announced “We have something else called favored nations, where I’m going to be reducing drug prices by 1,000% – by 900, 600, 500, 1,200.”
It’s bullshit and only « most favored morons » could believe him. Because it’s not the way mathematics work. He can’t obtain the companies to reduce a price more than 100%.. If he got the pharmaceuticals companies of cuting their prices by two would be a reduction of 50%, by the two third a reduction of 66%, and if he magically got them to reduce their prices of all of their drugs to $0 (zero dollar !) that would be a 100% cut. Meaning ALL DRUGS would be FREE !
A weird idea came to me: can we imagine a pharmaceutical company giving money to the customer in addition to the product it « sells » them?In this case, once the equivalent of the initial price of the product has been added/given, it would be a 200% drop of the initial price; twice the value, 300%; three times the value, 400%; and so on.
On the other hand, he can easily achieve/negociate (sic) an increase of 200% (doubling), 300% (tripling), or 1000% (multiplying by 10) of the price. We alredy noticed that Donald didn’t understand economics. We know now why: he doesn’t know nothing in mathematics and what a percentage means. It’s an ass-pain to be president of the world’s leading economic power and not knowing how to calculate a percentage.
Do you notice ? All the yes-men around him – first of all Kennedy Junior Jr. – approved the righthness of the boss’s revolutionary way of calculating. All dickheads, I tell you….
