Be thankful you guys at least have affordable insulin.  It's insanely expensive in the United States.  And I don't mean the new insulins, I mean the old ones that were still cheap in 1970. Granted, companies are dicks and crony capitalism helps them be massive dicks, but the increase in fats with T2 diabetes doesn't help matters.  It's not the people with T1 that are increasing the demand for insulin.  The percentage of people with an autoimmune disorder didn't dramatically increase, the percentage of deathfat hamplanets with high insulin resistance did.
