Amazing message, but quite odd that it is paid for by Pfizer (one of the largest pharmaceutical companies out there)!

To the people upset with "huge monster companies"...
When you get sick, do you refuse to use the medications created by these "evil corporations" and just hope you get better, or are you grateful that one of these "greedy scavengers" spent HUNDREDS of MILLIONS of dollars on research and development to get FDA approval, so you could feel better?
BTW - current estimates are that it takes $1.3 - $1.7 BILLION USD from beginning to end, to get a drug to market.*

It makes the $802 MILLION it cost in 2006 look like a bargain.

*NOTE - Only 21% of drugs make it to market. How much is also spent working on possibilities that fail testing?

"all that money when you dont even need FDA approval to goto market. "
Maybe not in your country, but in the US you do. There's certain allowances for "supplements" leaving them unregulated, which means you don't know if those pills full of powdery stuff contains *exactly* what the label says it does... because no one's checking or holding them responsible.
"When i was in middle school there was only one person in my age group who was on meds for ADHD, now there are classes where over half the students are taking meds for ADHD."
Soooo... the drug companies are force feeding kids these drugs - not the PARENTS who are complaining that little Johnny won't sit still or makes too much noise and go to their doctors DEMANDING they give them something to "fix" their kid? Because people will demand a "quick fix" pill for everything, the drug companies are bad for looking for those fixes?
Do you blame fast food companies for making people fat as well, or is it the responsibility of the person putting the food in their mouth?
