I was sent this site in an email from a friend:
http://www.snopes.com/medical/drugs/generic.asp I would advise everyone to visit it and learn how the drug companies are truly ripping us off. I realize this is only one piece of high cost medical care but these bastards should all be in jail. There is absolutely NO excuse for their actions. 3 times keystone would be a fabulous markup providing a very strong profit for the drug trafickeers.
If you think it worth your time, pass this along to all of your friends. It is way past time to have this information in the public realm.
The pharmaceutical companies are only one of several big industries who are taking it to the masses. How about the insurance industry? Better yet, todays immediate big problem. The oil companies. My favorite, Banks and creditors. This is where we often get into trouble. Goverment wants to be involved in big business and our personal lives as well yet regulation by the goverment almost always favors big business, thus my arguement in the Ron Paul post regarding Democrats and the GOP. Neither are really favorable or for the little people. It's a conflict of interest for the goverment to legislate laws which forceably compel me to do business with an industry with no choice such as requiring me to purchase auto insurance or medications that are available in other countries at a much lower price but are illegal to purchase. Ultimately though, the at fault parties are the masses and general public who through their own greed or laziness won't take some temporary inconveniences to control the beast. We lose everytime and will continue to do so. Big business does what it can and will go as far as it can to make a huge profit. Even still, our pharmaceutical companies have acomplished some amazing feats in treating and curing things that used to mean an instant death sentence.............great for those who can afford it eh?
