Drug companies have become to brazen and out of control with too many life threatening drugs on the market. The thousand of lawsuits should be evidence enough that drug companies are out to sell and distribute drugs without proper testing and evaluation.

Personal information of doctors is not public information and pharmacies should not be dispensing or selling the private information of a doctors practice as public information.

These marketers, in-person sales people, are chosen for their excellent abilities to "sell." College diplommas in all sorts of topics and subjects. I have known many of them. They make very good money and work hard, driving from clinic to clinic. Passing out free drugs. Well trained in their arts and crafts. Interesting world indeed.

If they were on the streets doing this, we would call them gangsters, druggies, and slime balls. But put them in a suit, give them suitcases full of drugs to put in their trunks, and pay them outrageous salaries, and you have a community leader, a fine example of what to do with your college diplomma.

It is what makes America great!

If you hate drug companies, next time you get sick don't use their products! No one is forcing them on you? Use the medications and drugs you invent, research, get approved by the government and produce. Simple, problem solved!
