Reply #17: This is great! Edwards comes up with great ideas, time after

time. He offers logical proposals that will produce...step by step...solutions to many of our most critical problems. I find myself shaking my head in agreement at each of his proposals. He is giving us his platform, not a big dose of how great he is, like most of the other Presidential wanna-be's.

On this drug an proposal, those billions saved could be money better used to develop drugs to cure some of the worlds greatest ills. If a drug company finds a cure for some major illness, they will not have to advertise. All of them keep the medical community up-to-date on their new products and the media will spread the word.

An additional bonus for the Doctors would be the ton of time saved answering questions by patients who have no idea what a drug is for and respond to the "ask your doctor about "XXXX", it might be right for you. A close member of my family is an MD and tells us that the medical community is up to their gills in this "Ask your Doc" stuff. The Doctors know what you need, they don't need a drug company to buy air time to tell all of us to ask them if we need some new drug.
