Many more would die with no FDA oversight at all. How can the FDA possibly predict the perfect outcome of these drugs when we have 10s of thousands of chemicals produced in the market that have not been scientifically tested? That lack of oversight has caused the FDA's shortcomings.Oh that's a fantastic idea. Let's get rid of any oversight on the drugs being produced. Let's let any drug companies put in any ingredients they like and we'll just ignore any harmful side effects.Wrong.
No, it's actually 100% correct. If you look at any of the problems this country has, at bottom the government is the cause. Just take the price of new drugs, for instance. It costs about $5 billion to bring a new drug to market. The FDA is almost entirely the cause of this incomprehensible expense. Get rid of the FDA and the price of developing new drugs would drop to something like $1 million.
It's amazing you don't think these things through.
If drug companies sell dangerous drugs, they get sued for billions of dollars. The FDA is counter productive since it lets them get away with selling drugs that harm people.
How many have to die before a good lawsuit can even be put together ? Do you realize how difficult that is?
How many people died from taking phentermine after the FDA approved it? How many people died because of FDA imposed delays in approving life saving drugs?
You mean like all the people who died of heart attacks who were taking FDA approved phentermine?Oh right because never mind those cases would take years to build AND without any government oversight, the powerful corporate lawyers could easily argue they didn't break any laws. People could die and become ill well in the meantimeOh that's a fantastic idea. Let's get rid of any oversight on the drugs being produced. Let's let any drug companies put in any ingredients they like and we'll just ignore any harmful side effects.Wrong.It's simple: government has caused all our nation's problems that are humanly solvable. Solution: get rid of the problem.

How did increasing the size of government solve all these problems? Uh oh....How would reducing government fix our crumbling infrastructure system that ranks one of the worst in the developed world?
How would reducing government lower medical costs such as prescription drug costs?
How would reducing government raise wages in the lower classes and keep all income gains from going to the top earners?
How would reducing government fix our public school system which for decades is one of the worst in the developed world?
How would reducing government keep environmental crises like Flint crisis from happening elsewhere?
How would reducing government stop Wall Street corruption?
Wrong.

How about the problem of dramatic decreases in automobile deaths! Curse you gubment and your safety regs !
How about the problem of dramatic decreases in automobile deaths!
How about increases in CAFE standards killing people?
How are they killing people? Other than lowering oil dependence and dropping gas prices .
Wait a minute ?! Cheap gas means more road trips! Meaning more road death!! Damn you CAFE!!
How are they killing people?
How do they increase MPG? Give me the top 5 ways you think.
Wrong.

One way manufacturers meet CAFE standards is to reduce the weight of their cars. Lighter cars mean less crash worthy cars which translates into more highway deaths.
Don't you see the stupidity in this fallacious thinking of yours? The FDA makes a mistake so your logic is that whole agency must go? What about all the other drugs they have banned because of their harm? Obviously they would go back on the market if the FDA were dissolved.You mean like all the people who died of heart attacks who were taking FDA approved phentermine?Oh right because never mind those cases would take years to build AND without any government oversight, the powerful corporate lawyers could easily argue they didn't break any laws.

Except highway deaths keep decreasing even as CAFE standards increase !

Oh, come on now. Everyone knows that new drugs don't need to be developed or tested or refined. There's no scientific process involved at all.
Drugs actually grow on trees, and if it wasn't for the Mean Ol' Gubmint, anyone could just drive to the local orchard and pick as many drugs for as many illnesses as they needed.
Only a leftwing idiot like you believes corporations think killing their customers is a good way to make money. Do you really think a multi billion dollar corporation will put a product on the market unless they are dead certain it won't harm people?

Power cars with:
Human blood
Human souls
Human babies
Humans on gerbil wheels
Human kidneys
There! That's 5!
Why would it matter to you that I single them out? I wont do that because the facts already state tax loopholes as a collective inhibit revenue. i know you think you are tripping me up by refusal to single them out, but we both know it doesn't matter since I can easily provide proof of their collective effect.All of the ones that allow some corporations to pay a zero percent effective federal tax rate. That in combination with havens, cost 100 billion per year in revenue.No if we got rid of all the tax loopholes and stopped rich people from taking advantage of cash havens, we would have a lot more revenue to spend.How would reducing government fix our crumbling infrastructure system that ranks one of the worst in the developed world?
If we reduced stupid, wasteful government, we'd have money to fix infrastructure.
Which loopholes do we need to get rid of? Be specific.
All of the ones that allow some corporations to pay a zero percent effective federal tax rate.
Yeah, that sounds awful. So be specific. Which ones?
Its another Triple Fail thread from the most failed poster on here.How would reducing government fix our crumbling infrastructure system that ranks one of the worst in the developed world?

Ummm no. Do you seriously think that highway deaths peaked at the dawn of highways !?
Lol! There are more highways and drivers than ever . Yet the deaths are dropping .
You'll never admit it but it's gov safety regs that are saving those lives .

Why don't you describe for us the process that goes into developing a new drug? We both know you can't, so you'll just jump up and down and scream obscenities, but it'll be fun to watch.

I've been involved in drug testing, so I know something about the process. regardless, how would my knowledge of the process or lack of it prove the FDA is justified?

So far you've given no indication that you understand why there's a need for oversight on the scientific process involved before the "ask your doctor if X is right for you" commercials hit the airwaves. I'm inviting you to prove otherwise.
