They have a window of about 10 years on their patent before it expires, so their return on investment is short lived.

The FDA puts their government stamp of approval on a drug's safety. Once that happens a company should be exempt from lawsuits.
Did you even read your own article? It shows examples of where the drug companies have manipulated the FDA into keeping unsafe drugs on the market long after they knew the drug was unsafe. What other recourse would we as citizens have if we can't hold the companies responsible for thier products?

The article was from a trial lawyer web site. I did not agree with that pap, just used it to give you Teddy's quote that is now coming back on him.

I think he's had a brain tumor his entire career, based on his positions.

But it is okay. You will receive your reward. It's called Karma... in fact, you are invoking it against Kennedy. Of course, you cannot see the hypocrisy and never can... you can't. Rather amusing and sad.

Then you should read it because it shows why your other comments are incorrect. You don't want to make it that easy for the rest of us to prove you wrong, do you?

No, it gives the point of view of the trial lawyers who leech off the people, then pay off Democrats to make it easier for them to leech some more.

I can easily tell the difference between the people who risk their own capital to add value to lives, the drug companies, and those who create nothing of value and drive the costs up for all Americans, the trial lawyers.
