"blatant disregard for patients in the name of greed may be common..."
the reporter on abcworld news tonight then goes on to describe several multi-multi-hundred-million dollar schemes by drug companies that were caught...and in doing so- helps explain EXACTLY why healthcare has NO BUSINESS being a for-profit industry.

1. Stories like this terrify me
Someone very close to me was just enrolled in a clinical trial, and the trial is being financed by the company that manufactures the drug being tested. It's hard not to become very frightened and paranoid when someone you love gets pulled into a system as intimidating as Big Pharma.
