HRC & Big Pharma Pay for Gay Republican Convention

Sponsors of the Log Cabin Republican Convention:
  • HRC
  • AstraZeneca
  • Pfizer
  • Gill Action (headed by log-cabin Republican)
What is the problem with Big Pharma?
  • Special rights and privileges that no other industry has
  • Spends more money on "me too" drugs, "off-label marketing," and other promotions than on research
  • Over 100,000 salespeople selling brand name drugs to doctors
  • Fraudulent lawsuits and other sneaky tactics to delay the introduction of generic drugs to the market
  • Schemes to keep demand and price high for life saving drugs
  • Unethical influence at the FDA and other governmental agencies. (E.G. Rumsfeld, who terrorized our country about bird flu, is on the board of bird flu drug maker and made $$$ off of the scare.)
