The grilling of Heather Bresch was almost like watching an inquisition in a socialist country like Russia. The vilification of free market enterprise and jealousy exhibited by these bureaucrats was unbelievable.
There was some progress made, however, because it was clearly revealed that The F.D.A. was the elephant in the room. The hearing proved without a doubt that The F.D.A. is not only extremely corrupt, but also is responsible for all of the atrocities related to the lack of adequate supplies of new, needed, and releasing of new life saving medications that should already have been on the market. Some of the red tape from this bureaucratic cog can delay the approval of these meds for more than four years.
I have no doubt whatsoever that these delays are the direct result of lobbying from a few of the pharmaceutical giants, in an effort to monopolise the industry. The representative from The F.D.A. was shivering so much I could swear he was going to start dropping leaves.
There should be a congressional hearing on the congressional hearing, because most of the inquisitors probably have a heavy hand in the F.D.A.’s atrocities. I would not be surprised that cures for many illnesses are being deliberately delayed for profits from less effective meds by these “heavy handed” lobbyists.
