    Providing some context:

    Due to the American Healthcare System barely doing anything to cap prices for medication, it is VERY profitable selling that stuff there.

    Tarifs would massively reduce profit for pharma companies, so they consider leaving other places for the one market where then can do the most exploitation, which is America. Moving the production there is just a way to dodge tarifs.

    It will probably backfire with the whole political and societal instability looming, but companies are blind on that eye.

      Trump is also rolling back environmental protections. And pharma companies just love to be able to dump their sewage into the next river and in the process create more patients for themselves. (There are documentaries about Indian towns downriver from pharma factories where half the children are stunted asthmatic epileptics.)

        You forgot about the fact that its India. People are dumping everything in the rivers like plastics, trash, ashes or defecating there. And there isn't any river that is not contaminated there. So pharma companies dumping their sewage would be the least of a concern imo.

          Not forgetting that it's India. Just saying that Trump is making the US more like India (again).
