We can't afford this, Argentina needs $40 billion so their leader can get a haircut that doesn't make him look like the manager of a rock band in the 70s.

Jesus, just make it free at that point!! Someone desperate will still not get it, and then it’ll cost the state a hell of a lot more than $11 to deal with the consequences.
You would think considering the cost, there would be programs for people without the funding with such a disability to get access to medication.
And sure I totally see and understand your point and I'm with you there. But a step in the right direction should not be scoffed at or mocked. Progress in a country like the US even if in a single state is undoubtedly a good thing.
