It’s a constitutional thing, government has to guarantee the companies’ freedom to set the price they want or something totally moronic like that…
In fact it’s the first time the government will be able to negotiate with pharmaceutical companies!

How about updating the constitution to solve this specific problem, which is quite significant for the populace? After all, it’s the constitution’s job to serve the people.

That would require a constitutional amendment, which would require being ratified by 38 or more states. Which would require at least 38 states without significant corruption/obstruction, and a population not braindead/brainwashed enough to vote against their own interests.
So the chances of that happening are abysmally low.
