So I teach economics at Stanford as well as health policy and one thing that's really really simple in economics Is that when you have a persistent price difference for the same product between two countries? There is something deeply wrong and what President Trump has done is a historic measure that should have been done a long time ago What we're going to do is is make sure that those prices Become much closer to equal like that like a competitive market you'd expect right now What's happening is the American people are subsidizing at in large large fraction Thought the research and development efforts for drug companies around the world by the higher prices that we pay with this new order Europe will share the burden of that and in fact if you may think of it as like it as somehow It's like it's it's going after drug companies Actually, it's helping drug companies because what we're also going to do with this order what President Trump has done with this order is He's said to European governments Look if you are taking advantage of the drug companies by forcing them to charge the very very low prices We're going to defend American drug companies in Europe at the same time We're standing up for the American consumer who's been paying far too high prices for far too long I can go back decades to point to Congressional report after a government report after government report of tremendously high drug prices Much higher than the rest of the world and nothing has been done about it until this moment And I'm really really proud President Trump so that you've done this I'm really proud to be included in this and looking forward to the work ahead
