President Obama and the FDA

4 Jun

The Obama administration pushes the FDA to accept the pharmaceutical drugs that haven’t been suitably tested for people with life threatening bacteria.
I’m usually cautious when they scare us about not having the drugs, or people dying. I feel for these people, but because the drug craze is already out of hand, and those companies are lobbying so heavily, I am leary.The doctors are who decide ifs life threatening, but a simple cold can be life threatening. I don’t mind the small picture but it sneaks its way into a bigger picture due to wording in the physicians handbook to make these drugs ok.
With the war on terror turning into gobbling up oil contracts in Iraq, I wonder if Afghanistan isn’t about poppy fields and antibiotic surplus that we have seized.
Who will slow this down?
How can we slow this down?
We spend so much money on drugs.
We are becoming a sicker country.
It’s all very saddening.
Please respond with ideas that may help us all. I know there’s some wise people out there who care.
