BIG PHARMA
This is no joke | It is, perhaps, poetic justice that I found the following graphic while wandering about on the website of the erstwhile US Food and Drug Administration | This section of the site is ostensibly about the "Patent Medicines" of a bygone era; an Era, incidentally, eventually brought down by the very same legislation that our current lawmakers are doing their darndest to dismantle | Seems that with all the bad press the FDA and Big Pharma are getting these days that these laws ought to be applied with even greater vigor today, rather than dispense with them | You can read about the early 20th cenutry elixers by clicking on the image |
Any thoughts on this from the gentle reader? | Come back later, I'll be adding some links to the stories of today |
