I am a reporter at a national newspaper researching a story about
pepole who share prescription drug medications to deal with rising drug
costs. Doctors and researchers say the elderly and chronically ill are
doing this most. Is there anyone who is doing this? Thanks. Dan.

Ain't US health care great? In almost any other first world country,
people get the pharmaceuticals they need at no extra cost, and they live
longer than Americans, healthcare costs roughly half as much as in the
US, and the pharmaceutical companies make plenty of money.

In the US, folks have to forgo heat in order to buy Vioxx that some doc
was bribed into prescribing.

Boy, are we a bunch of dopes.
