We’ll see how many red-staters cross state lines to buy their evil, demonic $11 insulin.

Watch them take advantage of this while acting like “California is the worst state”

I have family that loves to say this. They moved from CA to live in a red, welfare state that siphons more federal funding than they generate.

I remind them often that my state pays for their state.
