But, consider the top notch doctors and scientists used during the years of delevopment and research to produce that pill. The cure for Cancer might come from reseach payed for by those profits.
I dont have the answer, but I dont want the drug companies cutting their research staffs or the development of medicine moved into the back office at the DMV.

Very true, about the conservative values. I am very liberal on many things, and conservative on others. I will vote for who I consider the best candidate, regardless of party line. I still find it hard to believe that the republican party picked GW over McCain.
As for the drug companies, they want you to believe that. Look up CEO's and see which ones get the largest bonuses. I don't think that those profits are going into more research to help people. They are trying to make more profit, plain and simple.
I have no problem with a company making profit, it's the obscene profits that companies make at the expense of others, that bothers me.
I believe in open market economics, but that is without any taxbreaks.
