This story about Evista proves that if you have enough money, you can buy any endorsement you want. No wonder the taxpayin consumer gets upset with the huge conglomerates and the easily bought Legislature.2690

Yeah, Lilly is just a big company with lots of cash. Nothing to offer society </sarcasm>
Peggy, Why don't you try manufacturing medicine that helps people? And that stuff you brew in your meth lab does not count.

DON'T BE SO QUICK TO JUDGE. FOR THE PAST 5 YEARS I HAVE BEEN PART OF A STUDY TRIAL OF THIS DRUG FOR WOMEM AT HIGH RISK. AS A WOMAN WHERE NEARLY EVERY FEMALE MEMBER OF HER FAMILY HAS HAD OR DIED OF BREAST CANCER I AM GRATEFUL FOR SOMETHING THAN MAY HELP PREVENT THIS HORRIBLE DISEASE. IF YOU DON'T WANT IT DON'T TAKE IT BUT DON'T TRY TO PREVENT SOMEONE ELSE.
