The underinsured. People on the &amp;quot;wrong&amp;quot; insurance plan. People without the budget slack for $100s or $1000s per month for the medication they need. Poor people who don&amp;#x27;t bother going to the doctor to get needed prescriptions because they can&amp;#x27;t afford the initial visit. Rich people whose doctors fail to mention the drug that costs $250k because no past patients cleared for it could afford it. People going to the doctor who gets financial kickbacks from the inferior drug&amp;#x27;s drugmaker. People prescribed drugs that kill them.&lt;p&gt;If your question was actually serious, this is a non-exhaustive list.</text><parent_chain><item><author>someguydave</author><text>Who dies for want of basic medicines?</text></item><item><author>anlsh</author><text>A ridiculous fairy tale.
