My concern is that I need to live a fairly normal life, and I need to work. If I can not eat lunch at a normal time at work, and if I have to get up every 2 or 3 hours all night long to deal with my diabetes, then I can not work a normal job.

This is not a weird objection. The companies distributing the "expensive insulin" also distribute the affordable insulin, and created the cost disparity. Something strikingly apparent to anyone interacting with insurance companies for any chronic condition.

The reality is that before we had these medications, more people just died. Yeah sure in some sense it does not apply, but that's missing the point.
