I'd like to say "dueling lobbies" but medical lobbies seem to exist to drive their profits up.
A lose-lose proposition. It's called unregulated capitalism. That's what they mean when they say "Freedom".

If you're bad enough off to need a medical supply store, just buy a gun, instead, and end the problem.

Catheter supplies are probably cheaper online, although getting them Fed Exed overnight in an emergency adds to the cost. Don't buy a gun. Defy those assholes.

(Well, shit, Amazon has a lot of gear, they really do sell everything)
