The level of corruption that pervades the total clinical device and pharmaceutical industry is mind boggling and the solid of willing conspirators is limitless. From the leaders in Government; the members of Congress which are allowed to trade on insider advice, who aren’t mandated to have blind trusts, these guys can trade on insider advice that could put the readers of this column in jail, to the pharmaceutical and scientific device companies who knew or must have know that they were inserting out a faulty device or drug, to the paid researchers touting the wonders of the drug or device while downplaying the side outcomes, to the doctors pushing these on sufferers and eventually the toothless FDA who is beholden to the purse strings of Congress. This diatribe rant could fill a book but I have limited time and regrettably my readers haven’t got that endurance.
