Yes, it makes me ill to think about it. I literally cannot STAND all the friggin' commercials for drugs. Pot is illegal, but pharmacuetical companies can legally push all the drugs they want to on TV? Sickening.
One more thing about big pharma not mentioned, most of the money going into r&d comes from the government anyway, through the NIH. They fund most of the research in this country, NOT big pharma, although they would have you believe otherwise.
