Oh yeah, cuz you know most of that 2 billion is going straight to pharmaceutical companies for "research." Their lobbyists will treat those Congressmen real nice, I'm sure.  _________________ "I don't know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody."

What? Dark Lord critically thinking again? Quick - call in the 're-education' department.
Completely in agreement on this thread (especially the quote) - except the US political stuff which I'm not up on.
But here - normally in a year they sell 10,000 units of a Roche Pharmaceuticals product called Tamaflu (a flu vaccine). They have called a ration on it, as they have been selling 20 times that a WEEK since the alert.
