That puts their goals in direct conflict with each other.

I was thinking that making them sick with bad food was in best interest of pharma profit.
Heart disease and diabetes drugs are HUGE moneymakers, is what I was thinking. Not collusion. But causation.
Which leads me to my bigger question: Are drugs and medical all we can do? Is this another case of only having a hammer?
That's why I'm back to public health and prevention. Like a recent article said, "Just like tobacco." |
