...coercing people to take the product in ways that may be beyond their legal authority.
Those are crimes.
If the government officials are really doing those things we should prosecute them - just like we're prosecuting this grifting doctor.
There is no "if" here.
How can there even be a damn market for fake documentation if there was not coercion?
As for the graft, representatives like Jim Jordan and Rand Paul are fighting to get the perpetrators in trouble. Elon Musk has been releasing internal of the censorship pressure on behalf of Big Pharma through Government officials.
Its a whole damn industry of corruption and you are sitting there sayin "if"???
Holy cow.
