The point I am making is that you are a/ not getting cured, and b/ paying a lot of money. The reason for this, is this is best strategy for maximising profits. Its really the exact same model as your local heroin/crack dealer.

Please set me straight if those conditions differ in your case.

Profits are what pharma companies want.

The consumer is mostly labouring under the illusion that companies want the best for you. They are not your mum. They want what's best for them. And, most people would do the same - no one is gifting anyone health.

All I'm saying is let's drop the illusions and fantasy and call a spade a spade.
