Oh the poor pharmaceutical companies. I think I'll just go out and ***
myself in sympathy for them. You got shares in Merck that you bought at the
top of the market? That's what capitalism is about sucker. It is
interesting you come up with the crock of *** you do. I get a lot of US TV
Stations and one is a FOX affiliate. The day is filled with scumbag lawyers
advertising for clients to sue the drug companies for alleged problems with
their drugs. You pontificate about govt regulation of drug prices yet you
seem perfectly happy to take a share of the profits if you think you have a
chance or getting it. What a fucking hypocrite. You bitch about Canada
which has 10% of the market that the US does. Go bitch about India. They
have 3 or 4 times the market of the US potentially and they don't bother
asking they just make the drugs and sell them for a price they determine
without consultation with the drug companies. Tough eh?

Do you have any idea how drug prices are calculated and what the cost are in
developing drugs? One of the biggest costs of a new drug is convincing
assholes like you that you have some disease that the drug will cure or
control. If you shits were as sick as the TV ads portray you should all be
in a hole waiting for the last shovelful of dirt to be dumped in. Come to
think of it that is not a bad idea even if you're not sick.
Go suck Rumsfeld he looks like he needs a blow job.
