A new report done by the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) has found that drug prices in the U.S. on average are about two to four times higher than they are in Australia, Canada and France.
The GAO selected 20 name brand prescription drugs to compare the retail prices for each drug in the selected countries. While some drug prices were lower, some net prices for drugs in the U.S. were as much as 10 times higher than the prices in other countries.

Amid a battle over a $2.9 billion contract to build a lunar lander for NASA, SpaceX CEO Elon Musk on April 27 took a jab at rival billionaire Jeff Bezos’ space startup, Blue Origin. While taking to Twitter, Musk trolled Bezos and joked that the Amazon CEO “can’t get it up” to the orbit. While he did not elaborate on the tweet, he, however, shared a screenshot of a 2019 report about Bezos unveiling Blue Origin’s moon lander on the same Twitter thread.
