That is true if you believe all the rhetoric on your news channel. They love drama and judgements and using adjectives when not needed because unfortunately people like it. As it so happens we ARE the rich uncle when it comes to pharmaceutical development. We pay for it in our drug prices and everyone else mooches. But if we don’t pay, it won’t get done.
