What you are broaching on is crashing your own market. There is a cost to doing business, there is a value for the experience.
If the market ceases to be viable, than patients will suffer with products that cut corners.
Just because you are growing your own now, and sitting on piles of inventory, do not devalue the entire market, or you will suffer the consequences... That is all... you may tell me how wrong I am in 5, 4, 3,....
You may be right, or you may be wrong. I charge 0 to my two patients I choose to keep in the meds they need to make it farther along on this planet.
Others choose to charge up the ying yang. To each his or her own. I feel you do what is true in your heart and mind. All the rest is just gravy.
