Interesting article - Let's get to the raw truth about the pharmaceutical industry. Drug companies want to turn every normal human experience into a diagnosable disease that's treatable with their high-priced, patent-protected, brand-name drugs. It used to be that drugs were intended just to treat bonafide diseases -- things like malaria or infections -- but now the drug companies have realized that it's a much more profitable venture to invent diseases, and then sell drugs to treat them.

Re: big pharma
we are what we eat, and if what we eat is some greasy food and wash it down with a handful of pills then maybe we deserve to be ground up and fed to our offspring

Re: big pharma
Eve, that was one of the best articles I've read. What was particularly disturbing in the article, though I knew it, was the fact that our tax dollars go to fund vivisection, disgusting! The underlying theme of the article was a good one, the fact that you are only masking problems by taking drugs and that you should focus on healthy eating and exercise.
Recently I was given a heavy narcotic by my doctor and decided against filling the script because of the side effects and the fact that I would be giving money to companies that test on animals. Although I'm in a little pain I've decided I will not give money to support vivisection.
Here's something someone sent me recently that's related to the thread and funny: http://jibjab.com/JokeBox/JokeBox_JJ...adp&movieid=70
Thanks for that great post!
