"You can see that the US makes up 4% of the world population, yet they consume 55%."
"And when you look at opiates, again, 4% of the world population, 80% of prescription opiates are written in the United States. So Big Pharma's only market, their only market. They're not interested in you and the UK or anywhere else. They're only interested in the US. For two really important reasons. One, there's no price control. They can charge whatever they damn well want. Whatever they want to sell you at whatever the price. And secondly, we have direct consumer to advertise, direct to consumer advertising. Only two countries in the entire world allow such an illegal immoral process to happen. That's the US. And for some reason, New Zealand. And so, as you can see, the problem is getting worse and worse."
"And then there are the journals. So what you may not know is 29 of the authors in the Pfizer study, 18 of them were actually employees of Pfizer and held stock in the company. Talk about a conflict of interest. They have Pfizer employees and ghost writers, writing this paper in the New England Journal of Medicine. And then there is this rotating door where you go to you work for Pharma, then you work for the FDA, and then you work for the FDA, you work in Pharma. It's a process that is illegal, immoral, and should be completely made illegal."
