I have a problem with the whole mess thats why I want a president who will take them on and pass the legisaltion to put the pacs out to pasture and demand strict rules on advertising.

Trying to turn arond the facts, to get yourself off the hook for a statement about how the pharma greed is good,
will not change the facts.

By greed, do you mean they want to make money for their shareholders? Pharmaceutical corporations are not charities. They exist to make money, and any corporate officer who does not act to further that goal is breaching the fiduciary duty he owes to the corporation's shareholders.

In the process of making money for their shareholders, they've provided products which increase the longevity and quality of life of countless Americans. Without the profit motive, many of those drugs would not exist today.

What kind of anti-PAC legislation do you want to see? Do you want to put all lobbyists out of business, or just the ones who represent people you don't agree with?

It's not enough for you that direct-to-consumer ads for prescription drugs include exhaustive lists of possible side-effects as well as admonitions to consult a physician? What else do you want them to do?
