Of course, however I think there should be other penalties. Their insurance will probably pay most of it anyway, leaving the company with little to no real consequence to their actions.
I'm not sure what, maybe do something like revoke some of their patents. Do something that would actually affect them. -----Original Message----- From: Dana [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, August 21, 2005 2:53 PM To: CF-Community Subject: Re: US Courts convict Merck! I think there was negligence if they knew it could cause heart attacks and did nothing. It should have been labelled and possibly should still be sold that way. I know people who would still take it with their eyes open. And if that['s a considered opinion why stop them? And yes, the rest of us will pay more in consequence, but you can't just let corporations decide it's ok to cause a few deaths.
