Episode 11 - A Pharmacist's Take on the American Pharmaceutical Industry
Benjamin Jolley is an independent pharmacist from a family of independent pharmacists—the first Jolley’s Compounding Pharmacy in Salt Lake City was founded by his grandfather, Joel, in 1954. Benjamin is a Senior Fellow for Healthcare at the American Economic Liberties Project and writes a newsletter about the pharmaceutical industry, Ramblings of a pharmacist, which is read by a number of influential people in the government and private sector.
Conveniently, Benjamin and I have known each other since kindergarten. I had him over two weeks ago to get a pharmacist’s view on the Byzantine bizarro world of the American pharmaceutical system. And believe me: it’s complicated. Despite years as outside counsel for a pharmaceutical manufacturer, I didn’t know the half of it, and maybe not the third.
Stay tuned for more episodes coming soon with commentary on current events and interviews with people from across the political spectrum.
