    Oddly enough, our unregulated bullshit also affects pet owners. If you have a pet here with asthma, for example, most cannot use health insurance to pay for inhalers. Last time I tried to get one here out of pocket, it was anywhere from $400 to $600 for a single inhaler. I got a few from Canada for around $130 before finding a supplier for AUS/NZ that sells the same product for around $64. Then you realize that it’s not just pets without insurance, but also humans without insurance, and it makes you even more angry for people just trying to breathe. We need regulations in a bad way. Guess who keeps blocking it?
