As election day draws near, I've been bombarded by Issue 2 ads, more "no" than "yes." If you're in Ohio and still undecided, let me simplify Issue 2 for you in three steps.
1. Stipulate to the fact that Ohio pays for prescription drugs for its Medicaid recipients and for certain state workers, and although the state receives a decent price discount, the Veterans Administration gets a better one.
2. Ask yourself the key question: Do you think a legal requirement that the state of Ohio pay no more for a given drug than the lowest price paid by the VA for that same drug will in fact save some money for the state?
I think it will.
If you agree, then all the arguments against Issue 2 are just speculation and scare tactics -- noise and propaganda peddled by Big Pharma, which has an obvious and huge vested interest in maintaining higher prices.
3. Vote YES on Issue 2.
