Title: U.S. running out of more than 180 vital prescription drugs
Post by: Rami on August 20, 2011, 10:25:57 AM
"Federal officials and lawmakers, along with the drug industry and doctors’ groups, are rushing to find remedies for critical shortages of drugs to treat a number of life-threatening illnesses"

 :o I see a possible future of many bodybuilders becoming helpless weeping ogres pretty soon without their hormones

Yep, this has been going on the past year. There are dozens of drugs that are back ordered.
It's fucked up when emergency drugs get on the list like noriepinephrine or amidate.

Just wait and see if "Obamacare" kicks in so they can decide who lives and who dies because certain meds will be too expensive for the "Government" to pay for. (See the UK for an example)

Pretty sure the problems you are facing and are about to face have not come about in this first term - I dont really care much for your President but you are a complete fucking idiot the way you sit there blaming him for the troubles that were started or could of been eased through the Bush years - so you are even more idiotic than Bush with each of your political based posts - HTH

Seems you need to do a little research dude. True towards the end Bush spent way to much, but that wasn't shit compared to what this fuckhead has done. Not did he spend us into oblivion but he STILL wants to keep on spending. Not only that, 95% of his policies has failed and that's a consevative number.

There is absolutely no possible way that the previous 8 years could have had any residual effect on what happened the years after.  None whatsoever.

Go ahead and explain the difference between liberalism and leftism for me, "The Coach".  Can you do this?

Don't bother, I know you can't, because if you could you would at least have a slight understanding of how fucking retarded you sound when you paint liberals as socialists or communists.

idk man..my friend who is working 2 jobs needs to have a procedure done very badly. but despite working two jobs, neither of them will cover her for it, so to have this thing done it will prob cost like 10k+ out of pocket.
in most civilized countries she would be taken care of. theres tons of shit like this...people desperately need some kind of medical help but cant get it done simply because they do not have tens out thousands of dollars to pay for it.

our system has great care but will only treat you if you have tons of money.

Let me guess, your in your late teens/early 20's and the university you're going to is "teaching" you this right? Answer honestly. I understand you're either a "leftist or liberal" or if those are bad words we can just say "progressive".

You really don't know the difference, do you?

You can point at a dog and call it a cat all you want, it doesn't make it true.  

I am not in school, no, sorry. None of this was taught to me by anyone in a classroom.  That said, I am a leftist, which is a very very different thing than a liberal.  In fact, I despise liberalism probably almost as much as you do.  The problem is that you're painting liberalism as leftism when it simply is not so.

Give this a read and you may better understand how some leftists feel about liberalism.

Dude, I can't open links on a phone and I'm not near a computer. You're a leftist, a little more "out there" than a liberal. I was right on when I said progressive and if you are a true leftist your closer to a communist or at the very least socialist which is why you would support Obama. He fits your mold. Now...don't get me wrong, liberals are not far from your idiology. What you DON'T get os that it doesn't work, not in this country and is rapidly collapsing in other countries. If you live in this country and have those beliefs, go to the country that you support.

So, so fucking wrong.

Again, wrong.

This has yet to be proven. So, again, wrong.

Quote
not in this country and is rapidly collapsing in other countries.

Because of financial crisis enacted by Capitalism.  Wrong.

If you live in this country and have those beliefs, go to the country that you support.

There is no such country.  Wrong yet again.

well, ttyl.

most "civilized" countries you speak of wouldn't give him/her the opportunity to have 2 jobs.  through some fuck ups in life , this person has come to a predicament in which a health problem occured without him/her being ready for it.

first thing i did was get health insurance , then i saved up enough through the years to cover all 4 members of my family for emergency procedures not covered.

so, because your friend is incapable of taking care of themselves, we are all somehow collectively assholes as a society?  please.

Gujarat, has some of the most sophisticated pharmaceutical, factories in the world.
It is also the richest state in India.

They are from UP (the wild west), & they are cooking up meth, you fucking spastic  ::)
If you think Mexico city is a rough town, you want to go to UP (Uttar Pradesh), I know a guy in our gym how runs 'Shadowz security' (Manoz Williams) who is from UP, he has some tales to tell.
