Huh?  That's not how it works. 

dan, i'm confused i realize that it doesn't work that way in other
countries, but are you defending the way it works in america, or
denying that lobbies have enormous influence in congress? 

i realize there are costs in creating new drugs and marketing them.  do
you believe there are instances when drugs are kept on the market when
the side effects can be dangerous and law suits contribute to the cost?
 i have a friend who was given viagra when it was still being tested;
he had a massive heart attack.

the fact there is little interest in new research on vaccines because
it doesn't pay, yet any new drug for ed is a great investment, make me
wonder if capitalism is the right incentive for health care?  this is
what "sicko" points out...

i have no problem with cheap third world drugs flooding the market and
putting big pharm out of business.  perhaps governments would then
realize its responsibility is to promote research that saves rather
than kills people.  

as long as powerful lobbies are controlling governments, that will not happen
