The public pays more for prescription drugs than patients in other high-income countries — 36% more, according to an authoritative study. Those higher prices have been a painful reality for decades. Politicians of both parties have said they’d do something about it. But nothing ever happened.

Critics who refuse to give him credit are nothing more than political grandstanders — the same grandstanders that stifle meaningful policy reform in Washington time and time again.
