People from around Michigan go to Canada to pay for drugs on their own dime because it's cheaper than drugs here WITH insurance.
It's not just in Michigan. There are Internet pharmacies in Canada now that sell drugs to people in the U.S. Even with the added shipping costs, it's much cheaper.

It's so cheap, in fact, that the drug companies are bitching about how it's parallel marketing and the Canadian drugs are competing with their own, high-priced U.S. drugs... which are the exact same damn little pills.

The FDA is apparently looking into banning drug imports because they "aren't approved for U.S. use" even though these Canadian companies are buying drugs from U.S. companies at the federal government negotiated rate and selling them back to American citizens.
