, yes indeed. Corporate ( & govt) greed, at its finest.

Here's another article titled " Prescriptions And Profit " written last

year, http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2004/03/12/60minutes/main605700.shtml

Dr. Marcia Angell (featured in the above article) was quoted on

another article, " Americans now spend $200 billion a year on

prescription drugs. "

Angel,

Ditto on your referring to them as such. Have a few

articles here you may be interested in. As well as

other members. <embarrassed to say> I worked as a

chemist for MonSatan, became ill, was out 2 weeks and

when returned, received walking papers. Reason..they

were laying off. Yeah sure. If I realized then what I

know now, would have filed a lawsuit. My dad died of

bladder cancer while working for them. I can remember

<this was back in the 70's. The saccharin dept.> And

they now use nutrasweet and slpenda. How the gov ever

allowed it to start being manufactured again, I will

never know. At the time they were also making

hydraulic fluids for the gov. Space shuttles, planes,

etc. MORE PCBS! Not to mention the pesticide

exposures. 80% of the employees died from bladder

cancer also..Ironically, Monsatan had cancer policies.

They tore down the depts, and also the chlorodane

dept. Buried them. You know that junk is still in the

ground. Ick. The place stunk so bad. My car would

be covered with orange-yellow powder when I got off

work. It of course ate right thru the paint.

Monsatan has so many government contracts, in with the

drug companies. It is all about $$$. Make us ill, to

cause more drug sales. I can still remember when dad

came home, the odor-taste of saccharin his body put

off. You could taste it. When going anywhere, noticed

people smacking their lips and looking around. I tried

to get dad to pursue a lawsuit against them, but he

wouldn't. :-( The year I was there, who only knows

what all the stuff I was exposed to, has damaged my

immune system. Now have neurological damage, lupus,

kidney and heart probs. MCS, rheumatoid arthritis,

fibro, CFS. The pain I suffer..sigh. Thus now am on

disability.

Monsanto Gets Deferred Prosecution For Bribery

I know you share my excitement about this. Over the

past years we've wasted tremendous time and resources

buying science, advertising, and politicians to try

and convince a skeptical public, against all evidence,

that Genetically Engineered products are healthy, safe

for the environment and unthreatening to the food

supply. We've all had to divert massive amounts of our

precious time to arguing that the public needn't worry

about humanity's centuries-old reliance on naturally

diverse food sources being reduced to single crops

owned by a single corporation. We've had a lot of work

trying to convince people that golden rice is going to

save children from blindness despite the fact they'd

practically have to eat their weight in it every day

to see any health benefit. In Old Europe and

elsewhere, I have to frankly say I've been unsure we'd

win that battle for the hearts and minds of a

foolishly traditionalist and sometimes anti-American

consumer base.

Well, those days are over. We no longer have to

convince the public to trust us. We can force them to.

Agent Orange Lawsuit Filed Against Monsanto & Dow for

Killing & Poisoning Millions of Vietnamese

From: Grist Magazine <www.grist.org> 2/28/05

SUE IT, DON'T SPRAY IT

Landmark Agent Orange case goes to federal court

Did U.S. chemical companies commit war crimes by

producing toxic dioxin-laced herbicide -- known as

Agent Orange -- that the U.S. military used to douse

more than 2 million Vietnamese and that still lingers

on in their environment and food chain? That's the

question at the heart of a landmark case that will be

heard starting today in a U.S. federal court in New

York City. The suit was filed last year against

Monsanto, Dow Chemical, and a dozen other companies on

behalf

of millions of Vietnamese citizens who still live with

a horrific array of illnesses and whose children

suffer from crippling birth

defects. They seek what could be billions for damages

and environmental cleanup. The companies say they are

indemnified since they were acting on government

contracts, and the Justice Department

filed a brief on the companies' behalf. The companies

also claim that Agent Orange has never been

conclusively linked to serious human health problems

-- though they paid out $180 million to U.S. soldiers

who had been exposed.

Let Them Eat Science

When American industry manufactures a product that is

so dangerous to human health that consumers rebel

against it or government bans it, the manufacturers

withdraw the stuff from the market and move on to make

something else right?

I’m afraid not, Pollyanna. Instead, American

manufacturers have an atrocious history of simply

moving their banned nasties to Third World countries,

dumping the products on unsuspecting poor people. Take

DDT ... please! When the makers of this cancer-causing

pesticide were stopped some 40 years ago from selling

and spreading this deadly poison in the U.S., they

jumped to Mexico and other Latin American nations.
