The USA has the most expensive drugs in the world and no universal health care system.
In most cases the Federal government bankrolled a great portion of the research costs for the drugs ,
Next, drug companies sometimes spend more on advertisement then they do on research. Their next big expense is buying Congressman and Senators.
Finally, the drug companies have gotten rich on our the opioid crisis that is killing thousand of people every year.
Health care costs are one of the main reason individuals file for bankruptcy.
We can do better.

Just taking the advertisement money out the equation would help a lot.
