USA now taking aim at millions of sick and elderly people of the world who rely on subsidised medications. Trump hates Australia’s PBS (Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme) and will do anything to destroy it.

Just because their health system & cost of medicine is so ridiculously high that people can’t afford it doesn’t mean ours should be too.
Our PBS is non negotiable!
Maybe the US should sort their own health industry properly instead of imposing tariffs that only hurt people not help. #AusPol #USPol #USGreed
