I know exactly what the FDA is and does. It protects the food and
pharmaceutical
industries from the public.
But when our interests happen to coincide with the interests of one of
these
industries, it would be stupid to dump a rare opportunity. If it suits
the
Pharmaceutical industry to keep down competition by making someone
else adhere
to rigorous scientific standards for their claims, WE BENEFIT. To have
an
economic libertarian blow that too because he doesn't like govt.
regulation is
yet another indication of the twisted mentation processes of defective
libertarian
ideology. EVERYTHING IS OK IF IT MAKES MONEY.
No, I don't defend the FDA or their sponsors. I'm just protecting MY
interests
from the lunacy of free market Libertarians, who, if they were ever
taken more
seriously, would be as hazardous to our health as the chemical,
medical, and
food industries combined.
