An infographic that explains why Americans pay so much for brand-name drugs and Canadians don't. It has a blue background with a red and black checkered pattern on the right side. On the left side there is an illustration of a hand holding a bag of money with a dollar sign on it. On the right side there is an illustration of a second hand from a different person reaching for pills. The text above the illustration reads "Why Americans Pay So Much for Brand-Name Drugs (and Canadians Don't)".

The first bullet point explains that Google AdsWords recently settled for half a billion dollars with the Dept. of Justice for illegal advertisements for online Canadian pharmacies used by Americans. A second illustration at the bottom has the text "Drugs are more expensive in the U.S. than anywhere else in the world." It shows a pill an equals sign and a stack of dollar bills with the text 118% more expensive." There is also a bar graph comparing per person spending on drugs by country. It shows that the U.S. is the most expensive ($919) as compared to Ireland ($654) Italy ($561) and Japan ($558).
