Either one of those "uncontrollable" urges would make your legs jiggle like hell, I'm thinking!!!

More people die from taking prescribed medications every year then Meth Heroin and Crack combined. It's a business, nothing more. That is why there is a Walmart drug, Snyders drug and CHS drug store within ONE block of each other in my town. Drug stores are popping up everywhere.

People don't understand that the people that are doing medical research are not actually trying to cure cancer or anything else. If they did they would put themselves out of business. it would be like the oil companies trying to find a way to make oil obsolete.

The great thing for the Pharma companies is that with every drug they make they create a new sickness.

Health care for profit. People making mad money off of other peoples illnesses.
...in other words, I will help you only if there is something in it for me.(could you sleep at night? ...not me.)

(so people with no money can go to the emergency room ...IE = go fuck themselves.)

Oh yeah, and add that many many many American "self-medicate" with a drug that has absolutely NO (accepted by the medical community) known medical benefits what-so-ever and IS advertised more than all drugs combined....

Do I have to even name this drug?
