Well, I'd make sure they were fully guilty first, you know.

But do you honestly think Restless Leg Syndrom should be prioritized over research into heart disease, HIV, cancer, malaria, tuberculosis and the countless other lethal diseases all over the globe?

Their research money comes from the federal government and they waste it on shit like that.

Who knows? Maybe the "cure" for RLS stemmed from other cure research?

Even if that were the case they wste still more dollars on advertising. Why are drug companies advertising anything that's prescription? You shouldn't ask your doctor if bullshitX is right for you, if your doctor is doing their goddamn job they'll let you know if you'll benefit from it.
