Regarding profits and the laws of the USA:

The US Senate has just passed a bill that, among other provisions, explicitly EXCLUDES all imported or re-imported medicines from those which are purchased with funds provided for medical payments by the government.

This clearly serves only the interests of pharmaceutical corporations in the USA, as in many cases the re-imported drugs are identical in every respect. The new Senate majority leader, Bill Frist, owner of ten of millions of dollars in his family-run Hospital Corporation of America, was of course one of the heavyweight proponents of the legislation.

All of this ugly nonsense is very old news; Estes Kefauver testified to basically the same thing, before the US Congress, more than fifty years ago.

Jim,

I work under the sphere of a Pharmacy complex in Canada - doing a natural
healing modality.  They use the same drugs they always have before the
'money issues came to surface'. The drugs continue to be manufactured in Canada and the US to first world North American standards. It's about money - the rest is smoke. Folks faced with lack of funds have made the decision to order from Canada and even with shipping etc., its a bundle cheaper. The rest is scare tactics, media misdirection, and encouragement to keep higher profit in the corporate pocket book and stockholders hands. We have local people who make their own CS, and it's kinda an underground industry which some health food stores quietly stock for those who are more in the know.

I'm not sure about this but there was something going around a few weeks
ago about Canada getting drugs from Africa and labeling them so as to
look like the American made product, a generic equivalent. Could Mexico be doing the same thing? According to American drug manufacturers they
aren't the same quality.
