DNA Finally Tied a Man to Her Rape. It Didn’t Matter.
Seventeen years after Louise was raped, Boston police told her they had a DNA match for her alleged rapist. But under Massachusetts state law, the case would be almost impossible to prosecute.

Such classic gaslighting it's an instructive moment. The question is not whether generic is better or worse, it's that a list with more expensive brand names is not the same as a list with cheaper generics. Perverting that truth into an attack on those calling it out is Manipulation 101.
Hassett: "On one of the Sunday shows, the anchor criticized the fact Walmart said the Thanksgiving dinner is cheaper by about $10. Then he said, 'Oh yeah, but they substituted generic stuff,' as if having a generic something is a crime for ordinary folks! It shows how out of touch these people are."
