But that is NOT reality, now is it Graham?

President Donald Trump, outlining his “America First Health Plan” on 
Thursday, announced that his administration will allow the importation 
of prescription drugs from Canada.

The final plan clears the way for Florida and other states to implement 
a program bringing medications across the border, despite the strong 
objections of drugmakers and the Canadian government.

But it does not allow states to import biologic drugs, including insulin.

Jan 5 (Reuters) - Florida on Friday won authorization from the U.S. Food 
and Drug Administration to directly import prescription drugs from 
Canada, the first state to get such approval for a strategy that could 
lower prices for medicines.

U.S. drug costs are higher than in Canada and other countries where 
government-run healthcare systems negotiate prices for individual 
prescription drugs.
