It's not over by any means. He's put a 100% tariff on Australian pharmaceuticals. The issue is that the government negotiates a price with drug companies directly. If they lower the price sufficiently, it goes on the PBS, and is subsidized by the tax payer, for the tax payer. If the price can't be negotiated low enough, it can still be sold here, it just won't go on the PBS.
Apparently, the drug companies aren't making enough from the drugs that go on the PBS to trickle it down to US citizens. Supposedly, they would pass on the extra profits to the US domestic market by lowering their prices in the US. And if you believe that, I've got a bridge to sell you.

Americans are not capitalist. Capitalism isn’t using the money from your citizens to bail out every rich person who messes up at capitalism so much that it’s actually a viable strategy to tank businesses to get bailed out. And all it cost is bribing some politicians. We’re a socialist country for the rich. We can’t claim to be capitalist when the concept of making a better product doesn’t mean forcing the competition to adapt, it just means the competition pays enough to crush the competition of the owners let it die and make out with a golden parachute that then they use to buy into the new one.

That is the end stage of capitalism.
Capital has political power, over time the capital get accumulated, the capitalist have more and more influence over the state which leads to faster capital accumulation etc..
Monopolies are natural outcome as well. In a competition someone has to win, winner gets to grow, which sets the winner in a better position to compete in the future/buy out the competition.
And then we have the hyperscalers. You just throw the money at the problem, run the bussnies unprofitable for years to drive out the competition and once your monopoly/duopoly/oligopoly position is secured you strat jacking up prices and essentially transforming bussnies into a rentier model where you just extract the surplus value from consumers.
We’re a socialist country for the rich.
Yup. That's capitalism alright.

I think you two are talking two completely different things here and are both right within your topics. You are talking about ideal capitalism, which exists or can exist as much as ideal communism. It just doesn't.
But most "capitalists" are not dogmatic for the cause but are just greedy and try to grab what they can and give nothing back. These don't care if monopolies and buying political influence are anti capitalistic as long as it suits them.
Those have to be kept in check by political power to keep capitalism from imploding. But these checks diminish due to them buying more political influence.

And how exactly does "free market capitalism" prevent monopolies?
Even Adam Smith argued that markets do not work on their own without "morals", something needs to control them externally, be it the state or "morals", to prevent the forming of monopolies/oligopolies.
And what were the states trying to do in 1920s? To break up the monopolies.
What is the problem with that? Well capitalism does not exist in a vacuum detached from politics.
Capital has political power and as capital accumulates so does it's political power.
The end result is capital taking over the state (which is supposed to regulate the markets) and making rules that favor it.
After all, the capitalism is about the profit motive, not the free markets, and how do you maximize your profit? By monopolizing your position in the market and increasing the efficiency via vertical integration.
Markets can exists, and did exist, in other economic systems.

Nothing to do with the US insurance model bloating the cost of everything.
So countries like Germany need to increase prices, or Trump will tariff them... Making Americans pay more for cheaper German drugs, as well as American drugs!

Pharma companies make well and truly enough profits to cover R&D. What we're talking about here is profit margins not adequate R&D budgets. The reason the numbers look like the US spends nearly 50% of the annual worldwide R&D spend is because many of the largest pharma companies are US headquartered (Eli Lilly, J&J, Merck, Pfizer). It's not as simple as "the US is paying for R&D for the world".. although that argument "sells" well when playing the victim. The simple fact is the reason pharma charge US residents more for drugs than is reasonable is because they can get away with doing so. One of the two big pharma companies I worked for (implementing finance systems internationally) sold as much in gross sales (in dollars, not volume) in the USA as they did in every other country in the world combined... that's simply due to margin.

Pharma companies are known to inflate R&D costs in order to charge exorbitant prices, even when R&D is already financed by public funding.
An example, the currently highest-selling drug:Testifying before the US Senate health committee in February 2024, MSD’s chairman and chief executive said his company had invested $30 billion in its Keytruda research programme since 2011. This figure cannot be verified, as companies are under no obligation to publish or account for R&D costs on a product-by-product basis.
[...]
Our estimate of Keytruda’s research and development costs stands at $1.925 billion (CHF 1.52 billion) – equivalent to just 1.2% of the drug’s global sales to date. This is far below the figure cited by MSD’s chief executive. Even when potential failures are taken into account, the total cost of Keytruda’s research and development ($4.79 billion, around CHF 3.8 billion) represents barely 3% of the medicine’s turnover.Give the article a read, it's quite revealing.

This is a bit misleading.
The US develops drugs, which is very expensive, and then expects other countries to purchase these drugs to offset the cost that was incurred to develop them in the first place.
It’s never been expensive to produce drugs once they’ve been developed. So whenever other countries choose to provide cheap generics without contributing to the development, it’s unfair.
Pharmaceuticals should be cheap, but they’re not, and without the US, the rest of the world would be spending way way wayyyy more on their own drugs. The US subsidizes the rest of the world quite significantly.

There's patents on drugs so the manufacturer can recoop the research cost.
Those patents eventually expire, to avoid patent trolls blocking life-saving medication.
Many manufacturers stop production as soon as the patent expires. And introduce a slightly changed (improved or not) version and get a brand new patent. This is why even very old drugs are expensive in the US.
Other countries produce the old medicine from the expired patent. And they negotiate much lower prices for the patented stuff, because they have universal Healthcare and that gives them power over big pharma.

My guess is it's an attempt to say share more of the burden of innovation costs? Especially if your country has the brain power and industry for (not saying this is a reasonable ask, no idea on the specifics). But I mean...if they're doing cool stuff to reduce cost in an innovative way or reducing overall cost just by production that's pretty awesome and helpful too. Idk maybe other companies see it as eating at their share and in turn availability to spend on research?
US isn't even #1 for new patents though, granted # of patents doesn't correlate to truly innovative/pushing medicine foward ex) cancer drug vs another allergy pill. That'd require looking a bit deeper. But still thought this map is pretty interesting- UK/Switzerland seem to be crushing it.
