WB your big pharma analysis is spot on. Does anyone besides me remember a 60 minute report from years ago which show undercover investigation of a meeting in a hotel room between big pharma reps carrying in brief cases and FDA officials carrying out those brief cases. The special focused on how big pharma pays the FDA budget to get their drugs quickly approved. This is a multibillion dollar cartel operation. You don't hear much about what's going on any more do you. There are those alleged politicians that say they want to serve the people to get elected to go to Washington and tons of money is needed to get elected. So many of these representatives end up millionaires don't they. Money can be not only laundered through book deals, inside information, and fees for speaking but under table for influence. Is the system corrupt? Is there influence pedaling going on, phony charities used to pocket politicians? Is there a deep state protected by big pockets? Makes you wonder does it not? Why did it take FDA countless years to approve Biel's proven beneficial products requiring more and more testing while big pharma continued to sell their opioids. It was only after something had to be done with the opioid deaths epidemic that finally approval was given, wasn't that odd?
