34. Okay
Given that we know that the FDA is bought and paid for by the drug co's, then people have to either do their own research (I read articles in "The New Yorker" about COX-2 inhibitors years ago, describing them as wonder drugs), or they just have to stand on the sidelines and wait for the gullible and/or desperate to be the guinea pigs.


I'm not against making pharma company executives criminally responsible for their misdeeds, indeed, lethal injection would be a fitting punishment. I just have big problems with lawyers ambulance-chasing "victims" whenever something looks like it might have gone amiss. Making a bunch of shysters wealthy while they throw a few crumbs to the survivors of the deceased is not justice, either. Putting CEOs in the "test" group to try out new drugs might be.
