Government statistics will not show this, but
i believe that the Food and Drug Administration
is the most lethal agency in the United States.
The self-righteous and omniscient FDA forbids free men and women to cope with their medical maladies as they may judge best, thereby depriving them of
avenues of aid that have been well-proven elsewhere.
Their obligatory approval procedures also add many billions to the costs of healthcare in this country.
I agree with you. And even though it is never on time with what it is supposed to do and has a less than stellar record at doing it, the agency now wants the right to regulate tobacco. Which isn’t even a drug as the term is defined under the law (which differs from the dictionary definition, of course.)
