Isn't it time we Took on the drug industry .

Did you know the same drugs we pay topl dollar for are sold in other countries for much less?There must must be a way we can get a new congress who hasn't yet received funding from the drug companies to take them on. Does this sound like gun control?

We need laws to end the corruption in our government which allow private indutries to buy our elected officials through campaign contributions and whatever other crooked shit they're up to... The problem is, those same crooked politicians who are the problem are also the ones we need to fix the problem... I don't see that happening, at least not in my lifetime... Their motivation to do the right thing is slim.

The people have been trying the politicians won't comply. We need a public review board that can censure or impeach candidates that constantly vote against the majorities desires.

@Marine Currently our review board consists of voting the corrupt out of office, which isn't the most efficient way to do it, and they count on that... As far as creating a new system of corruption control we're back to the catch 22 of counting on the corrupt to police the corrupt.

How do we end corruption in government - take the money out of it. How do we, take the money out, get control over the media to stop the propaganda, how do we get control of the media? Consumer action. How do we have consumer action, create consumer groups willing to stop buying stuff from corporations bribing polititcians.

It's not like gun control, unless you're talking about how an industry can buy enough government officials to make obscene profits, but Medicare, Medicaid and the VA should be able to negotiate cheaper drug prices from Big Pharma. Our government won't allow that so we have the most expensive drug costs in the world.
