?Novartis is also the producer and pusher of Ritalin

USA Today Nov. 20, 2015: Novartis Pharmaceuticals, the maker of Excederin, Ritalin and other popular drugs, agreed to pay $370 million for providing kickbacks to pharmacies to push its drugs on patients.

Wow. Is Ritalin "popular?" I am going to guess that this little stunt in FL is back-firing big-time and the backstory will be a sharp immediate decline in the use of psychotropic drugs. After this, if I had succumbed to professional advice to put my kid on one of these, I would be the deranged mental case showing up at said so-called professionals office threatening extreme prejudicial conduct unless provided an immediate plan for getting my kid off the medication as quickly as possible.

Indeed.

Thank God that they didn’t have Ritalin and “Licensed Drug Pushers” in my youth, because my behavior and performance in grade school would probably have led to it being forced on me.

No telling how many people I would have killed if they had.
