So i pay $36k a year for insurance for drugs they won’t give me, and i can’t afford the drugs because i didn’t qualify for the “no insurance” coupons.

Ah that sucks. I didn’t know that. My wife uses Zepbound and thankfully our insurance covers it so it’s only $10/month.
We’re Aussies living in the USA, and GLP-1 meds aren’t covered by Australia’s public health care system yet, so right now it’s actually cheaper in the USA than in Australia. In Australia, medications covered by the public health care system (Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme) are a maximum of $S25 for most people, and $7.70 for low-income families.
