If the device is both not as effective and more dangerous than available alternatives, as it seems has been demonstrated, I would not agree that it should be marketed, so long as you accept the regulation of medical treatments.

Are you implying that corruption and bribery will get worse with his Omnipotence Obamarama’s benevolent government controlling everything?

Shocked! I’m Shocked that such a thing could happen! Surely, you jest.

Not at all. And don’t call me Shirley.

What offends me is not so much that Frank Pallone sold us out. Of course he sold us out. Pallone is a snake... We all knew that.

What offends me is that Frank Pallone sold us out so cheap. The amount of money he got out of this deal won’t cover a fifth of the cost of one botched procedure caused by his reckless actions.

It is sociopathic.

My Mom uses 'surely' a lot in her sentences. I always say "don't call me Shirley" and she never fails to laugh. I love an easy audience. ;^)

The product should be on the market...

The information in post #11 casts some doubt about that.

...the politicians should be in jail. Instead we take the product off and reelect the pols. It’s no wonder America is in trouble!

That point is well taken.

I wouldn’t be surprised if that was from the AMA.
