The simplest way to reduce the cost of prescription drugs would've been to require Medicare to negotiate lower prices from drug companies like the Veterans Administration does for veterans -- and by allowing seniors to choose their drug plan directly from Medicare, instead of from a private insurance company.

Medicare beneficiaries would never accept a drug benefit with sharply reduced drug choices and very limited access to pharmacies.
