-==== California Insulin Plan ====
+===== History =====
-California is single handedly trying to solve all of America’s economic problems. Next up: transforming the pharmaceutical market
-By Andrew Marquardt - July 9, 2022 FORTUNE
-Last week, California Gov. Gavin Newsom made headlines when he announced his state would be sending out one-time-only checks of up to $1,050 to qualifying residents to help battle high gas prices and rising inflation.
-Now, the governor is tackling another major economic issue for many of California’s 40 million residents. Newsom said Thursday that the state will spend $100 million to begin manufacturing its own low-cost [[:insulin]], the life-saving diabetes medication, possibly upending the [[:pharmaceutical]] market in the process.
-The state plans to direct $50 million towards funding an insulin manufacturing facility in [[:California]], while the other $50 million will be spent to cover the cost of developing the drug.
-“Nothing epitomized market failures more than the cost of insulin,” the Democratic governor said in a video announcement posted to his Twitter page. “California is now taking matters into its own hands…we know people should not go into debt to receive life-saving medication.”
-The high price and heavy cost of insulin in the U.S.
-The rising cost of insulin has become “something of a poster child for Big Pharma’s price gouging in recent years,” Craig Stubing, who has Type-1 diabetes and hosts a podcast about managing life as a diabetic, told Fortune.
