A toy company can out source to a Chinese subcontractor and claim
... it's a free market.
A shoe company can produce its shoes in south east Asia and claim
...it's a free market.
A major bank can incorporate in Bermuda to avoid taxes and claim
... it's a free market.
We can buy HP Printers made in Mexico. We can buy shirts made in
Bangladesh. We can purchase almost anything we want from 20 different
countries.
BUT, heaven help the senior citizens who dare to buy their prescription

Haha the mandatory immunization schedules prove they have the best lobbyists in the world, not too mention all the untested & approved drugs out there
that cause problems. Vioxx anyone? Drugs that are barely tested and no long term results are rushed to the market every day en masse. Fuck them.JawnDiablo - 3-13-2007 at 07:40 AM
