PHArmaceutical companies are the creation of evils. They just think abt profits rather than people's healt, they use human beings in poor countries as well to test their drugs. To their managers, May God bury you and your family alive with your money. AMEN.

@ssssaaafff I assume you are being sarcastic to make a point but I have to say the sheeple are also mom and dads who put their children on Anti-depressants and other toxic poisons because they believe in ADHD and other pseudo-terms in order for big pharma to make their billions. One of the so called sheeple belived his doctor was trying to help him with his back ache. He took Cymbalta and had terrible side effects, not the least of which was suicidality. He leaves behind two beautiful sons.

Thank you for this important film!

15:52 "the tactics used by the pharma sales people rely on an entire system that is designed to manipulate what doctors understand about drugs... pharma sales rep being the last step ... the clinical trials are designed by the companies seeking to push a particular product, in most cases.They are able to manipulate the design of the study or how the results are presented so that their drug comes out looking more favorable."

"CLINICAL TRIAL"? such crap.

I wouldn't change anything. Let the clueless lazy sheeple be brainwashed and lead to suffer and die by listening to the evil medical industry. It's called the survival of the fittest. We don't need unquestioning mindless authority following sheep. That is why our country is in such sad shape. Let them all die out. LOL
