Why should Medicare pay twice as much for VEDs that anybody can purchase retail for half the price? Likewise for prescription drugs. I loathe Trump and everything he stands for, but I (reluctantly) agree with his stand that we must negotiate better prescription deals.

Medicare no longer covers VES. I always wondered why the medically approved system ($400) looked identical to the ones available without requiring a prescription ($130)

It would not have taken much investigating to figure out that Medicare was being ripped off and brought the price down to $130. If Medicare can cover a knee brace which allows you to walk better. No reason it should not cover a VES which allows you enjoy intercourse.

I couldn't help but wonder if you ever worried any at all for 8 years as to what a liberal bunch of democrats and a Muslim terrorist sympathizing president was doing to this countrys future? Trump is no idiot, and he certainly is no traitor.

Why do you have a problem with that? There is a lot more waste the government does than on penis implants. Get a life and go on and complain about garbage collection or something else. Good luck with your next woody.
