when you say paying them
Ill assume you mean the goverment paying drug companies
Is that what you mean?
That essentially means that taxpayers are paying- and that doesn't really solve the problem...

Hehe with the election coming on we have a lot of people only recently posting in politics.
I forget they don't know I'm an evil, baby eating, old lady pushing, minority disenfranchising, warmongering neo-con. And that’s on my good days
I suggest the people pay for them if need them. Are some going to be very expensive, perhaps to expensive? Yes. That’s what charity programs are for, and there are many such programs currently. I much rather have really expensive drugs that can help people vs. no new drugs.
Should the government get involved? Hell no, but if they did, they should do NOTHING to cut into the drug company profits. The reason being that the fastest way to destroy our wonderful drug R&D is to take the money out of it.
