This area of the pharma industry is no better than a Columbian drug cartel. The added advantage is in the marketing side where the target market is much bigger, it is "legal" and you can charge prices for that shit which more than resembles "drug dealing".
This is an industry which has over 2000 lobbists - kinda makes a mockery of any idea of a democracy. It is no surprise electoral campaigns are well supported by this industry.
The other side is.. it can do much good for those who actually need it. However the marketing ploys (legal!*g*), in TV advertising etc, telling folks to run along to a doctor and tell the doc ya want Prozac is immoral.
The US appears to be the most attractive market to drug dealers in that a higher percentage of the population want to take drugs - (for whatever reasons), - I got little doubt the corps like Lilley are well aware and just pandering to these whims.
Fuck em all - they are worse than VISA cos they actually cause damage to many folks.
