Yeah, but OTOH, patients used to be sold snake oil and dropped dead more from the "med" than the illness...

I believe the FDA is hopeless. There are other safe and effective options outside of government. I posted a great policy paper a while back that is a wonderful read for fellow conservatives. Please check it out.

That was true before the 30's. There used to be a guy who sold radioactive water as a "health tonic".

There's no reason for the FDA to block product improvements just so data can be available for inspectors at a moments notice. The auditors could wait a day or two.
