While I was at college one of my best friends worked for several years in a government funded drug research lab while getting his Phd in pharmacology.

Did you know that the majority of new drugs that enter the market are the result of our tax dollars being spent at universities and research labs and not the private funds spent by drug manufacturers?

The fact is that drug companies spend more money marketing drugs to the public and doctors than they do on anything else including research.

I see some people here have swallowed the industry propaganda for outrageous US prices, hook line and sinker.

The fact that other countries are better at regulating their medical costs are the reason why the same drugs are cheaper elsewhere and its not like canada, europe or asia is lagging the US in medical technology.
