Quote:I say one huge piece of the problem lies within the doctors, who prescribe medicine without thought or because they get provision for it.

Quote:A Pro Publica investigation shows that many doctors are being paid by the same drug companies whose medicines they prescribe. By 2013, all doctors must report any payments from pharmaceutical companies to the federal government, and those records will be available to the public.
The level of corruption is actually far worse than you imagine.
