Last year the pharmaceutical industry spent $128 million

lobbying congress, number 1 again! way to go guys. 52% of Amerikans still aren't taking your drugs. I'm sure with a little more government support you can fix that. Next time you need to get them to make being without a prescription a class 1 felony, that should help lots. :banghead:

1. codex alimentarius will "help" them, of course

Not to mention the HMO's/etc. that soak up insurance and other payments for cold medicine with this crap.

When do the insurers strike back? Maybe the Democrats could cozy up to health insurers to get lobbying money to reverse that crap.

2. Too late at night to check, but I'm sure the Dems are getting their

fair share of the loot. It is what they do best. :grr:

3. probably 2/3 DLC or so

But in any event, they could easily rake in tons of lobbying money from insurers for avoiding this crap.

4. $240,000/cngrsspersn: how spend that on Cgrss?

if 400 in House and 100 in senate.

So, how can they .. lobbyists.. spend that quarter of a million per congress critter, ...

on just allowed things like free trips to europe, free meals and drinks?

Europe for a week, lesee... 2400 for a week including air and a hotel at 200/nite. Give the critter three weeks each year.

7,200.

add a weekly fifty dollar supper at a DC restaurant..

2500
==================
9,700 TOTAL

way below the quarter of a milion spent. Did i miss something?
