Richard L. Adlof Commented on A Question to those Outraged by Pharma Deal by jsfox

2009-08-06T20:06:30Z

On Obama and Big Pharma:

I know that progressive-types lied themselves into believing that the just-right-of-middle-of-the-road, corporatist Senator from the Great State of Illinois was one of them BUT selling out does not apply to folk already bought by an industry and a dogma of corporate supremacy. President Obama is not We, the People,’s President. He is just not single-minded, knee-jerk recessivist.

President Obama's devil deal with the insurance industry means that Big Pharma will shell out a total of $80 billion in kick-backs for the next five to eight years while not ever having to face the US Government ever being able to negoiate prices with them.

In short, We, the People, just got screwed.
