Reader comment on: NYT Denounces Drug Price Increases While Raising Its Own

The comparison is truly lost on them. They think business exists as some sort of public service or jobs program without realizing that it is profit and free enterprise that make it all happen. I canceled my subscription to The Times about 18 months ago after 20+ years. I just could not subsidize them any longer. I now get the WSJ. I miss the general news stories. I just filled a prescription about an hour ago - my cost was $1.24! My venti from Starbucks that I am now drinking was $2.62. Thank you Adam Smith.
