This is not good. Mental health drug prices will soon go through the roof and trannies and other demented Leftists who have no jobs will not be able to afford them. Heck, maybe once off those mind altering concoctions they might come back to reality. I think the drug companies add something to keep those who take the drugs in a constant state of mental unclairity. Prescription drugs sometimes do more harm than good.
A well known idiom: what's more profitable, the cure or the treatment of symptoms?
RFK Jr. move to ban "pharmie" adds from TV (pharmacy sponsored national news hour) coupled with Tariffs added to this equation can only mean one thing..... Americans are about to get healthy again!???!!
The ban of tv ads will be a crushing blow to the tv media.
AND the tv media will no longer have incentive to protect their cash cow.
And a crushing blow to the entertainment propaganda budget
I could not be happier. I remember, waaaay back in the olden times in 1997 when the ban for advertising pharmaceuticals on TV was lifted and I saw the first drug ad. I think it was for Prozac.
I remember thinking "What.the.actual.fuck?" (I was as eloquent then as I am now.)
It was, and still is, an absolutely horrible idea. It has just made the health system explode with people who are being needlessly medicated, or medicated with the wrong things.
It's so much easier for doctors to just give in to patients who barge in demanding to be prescribed whatever new pill they just saw on TV than to, you know, go to all the hassle in actually diagnosing whatever illness they might have (or even if they have one).
Good riddance to bad rubbish I say, what what.
Easier? The practice of receiving quota payments is very real. Write 100 scripts and get the followingβ¦
What? I don't understand what you mean.
Ask you doctor is this mind numbing/heart stopping/taint rotting drug is right for youβ¦
Yes, there is a drug where taint rot is a side effect.
Taintβ¦..lolololβ¦..havenβt heard that in a while.
Most of them only need a week or two of Ivermectin or Fenbendazole.
Look into what Toxoplasma Gondii (transferred via cat poo) does when it infects a mammal.
If you REALLY want to get grossed out (make sure you haven't eaten for 2 hours) dive in to : The Parasite Pill 2.0
Worms cause faggotry? WTF π³
Maybe they just remove themselves
I agree on your last parts for sure! It seems all pharma doesn't want to fix anything. They want to drag it out and milk people for every dollar they have!
More sauce...
Global pharma shares plunge as Trump doubles down on tariff threat
It's not difficult to set up manufacturing in Trump's America. What is the real reason they don't want to set up in the US? Maybe inspections are too tight? Maybe only pure ingredients must be used? What's the real reason? π€
Labor costs. That's the biggest reason I believe.
India is one of our biggest pharmaceuticals suppliers.
The last numbers I saw on the wage difference between pharmaceutical employees in US vs India is something like 8-10x more than they make.
Also, jobs in textiles (clothes, shoes) where skill or education isn't really important, many of those people are making something like TWO DOLLARS A DAY.
That's not a typo. It's not two dollars an hour, but two dollars a day.
There was a big brouhaha just a couple years ago about (I think) Nike using child labor and basically slave labor to make their shoes.
And in (I think) Bangladesh, prisoners are forced to work making clothes and such, for nothing.
If people really knew who it was making all the crap we buy, they would be horrified. Or they would be if they aren't a sociopath, anyway.
That's what disgusts me so much about how our culture is so wasteful. The idiotic fashion influencers on social media have created a zombie army of fellow idiots devoted to fast fashion. Where they buy whatever cheap pieces of garbage influencers deem to be divine artwork, wear it a few times and trash it. You can't even donate it, really, because it falls apart after a wash or two.
That's why I don't mind paying $150 or more for a nice Irish wool sweater, handmade by a truly skilled person, and I can wear it for decades.
I have cashmere sweaters I bought in college 30 years ago (dear God, I am so old), that I still wear every winter. And they're as beautiful as they were then, because I chose simple, classic cuts, and I've only had to repair them a few times, due to little snags here and there. And I take the time and effort to repair them, instead of just tossing them and buying some hideously uncomfortable acrylic atrocity, because they're worth having them repaired.
Oh dear....I seem to have wandered up onto a soap box somehow. I'll get down now. Thank you so much for enduring my ramblings and rantings. Hope you have a lovely day. βοΈ
Nicely written!
I completely agree on buying things of value that last a long time.
As for the labor and rates... There is no doubt it is cheap labor, but something seems fishy to me about it all. With automation and technology, I just don't think there are little Chinese people sitting on stools hand stitching Nikes. I picture a fully automated, mechanized system doing almost everything. Same with textiles. Lots of tech and automation. Maybe they have to lace the shoes by hand, I don't know.
As for pharmaceuticals, maybe Puerto Rico can become the pharmaceutical supplier we need. Cheap labor, American territory, close to home.
There seems to be little industry there except for massive corruption. Maybe that's why it wouldn't work. But from geography and labor rates, I would think there is a chance.
I just went to check on Puerto Rico wages and incomes and found out that in 2021 they passed their own minimum wage laws.
The Federal minimum wage in the US is $7.25 an hour. Since last year, the minimum wage laws in Puerto Rico is $10.50 an hour
So it would cost more to set up manufacturing there than in most states.
I was pretty surprised to see that.
Thanks for that research. I find that surprising too.
There goes my grand plan. LOL
You'd be surprised to see how much human labor is required to make shoes and such.
You can go to YouTube and do a search for something along the lines of "How shoes are made" or something similar.
Puerto Rico, while being a territory and not a state, is still required to to obey wage laws, such as minimum wages. It wouldn't be any different than setting up manufacturing in one of our poor states, like Mississippi, Louisiana, Alabama, Arkansas, Kentucky etc...
I found this one that's supposedly shows people making Nike shoes. Not completely convinced on the validity of that, but shows even more human involvement in the process.

I thought I'd save you some time and see if I could find a short video on how shoes are made.
It's not a comprehensive video by any means, but it shows how much human labor is involved, even with a huge amount of machinery.

If you sell pharmaceuticals in the U.S., it doesnβt matter where you facilities are, you will still be subject to the same FDA inspections and audits as if you were in the U.S.
Which are useless depending on what it is.
Wanna sell asprin? Yeah, better be legit.
Wanna sell vaccines? Meh, just make sure they don't die within 72 hours of taking....what? Hmm,... oh, well okay, just make sure they don't film anyone dying within an hour of taking the shot (fail).
got sauce on that?
Did you watch POTUS' Speech last night? It was awesome! π₯
I did not fren! I was tied up. I will look for it!
I posted it last night..here it is fren! Enjoy!

Thanks fren! I have it on!
Stock up now on Ivermectin.
That was my first thought.
Even better idea is to start a pharma company in the USA and sell Ivermectin. A lot of people are going to be taking it.
Can you loan me 100 mil?
Ask Papi Trumpo. Maybe he will want to invest if you have a good business plan.
Well, hope everyone stocked up on their heart pills, insulin, and viagra.
I had a recent conversation with my Doctor Who has since retired and I asked her. What do I need to do to get off of my medication? I was taking for a particular item. She listed a handful of things related to lifestyle, diet, exercise, etc. But then she followed it up with. We are trained to manage your care⦠that pretty much summed it up for me
Diet, diet, diet, fren. Just get off the sugars and carbs and your body will respond with wonderment! I got off sugar for about two or three days and BAM the ache in my knees when I got out of my easy chair had disappeared. God didn't invent chemical concoctions that are in our food. He only put wonderful food out there for us to consume. I doubt He invented Coco Puffs. Eat God's foods and leave man made food alone. Then your body will really respond. If you have a kegger for a gut or a big booty it will magically decrease with a God food diet.
Yep, and no GMOs either
There are plenty of manufacturers here in the states that are capable of picking up our drug production. One such place is L Perrigo in west Michigan. They have the equipment and processing plants. They can crank out blister packs of liquid tabs, bottles of pressed pills, and oodles of other formulationsβboth prescription or OTC.
They just need to see the $$$
The number one reason for high drug prices is overcharging
This is not good, I was told today by 3 pharmacy's out of stock with my med that is made in China. We are dependent on China this will get ugly. Aleve, Tylenol, Advil cold meds all made in China. All the cheap ones.
Wake-up call. It could be worse. It could be military equipment or strategic minerals.
It has to be, we have to man up.
