You make my point for me. Do you want your drugs to be like CBS or
like PBS? Which is better for your health? As you rightly pointed out,
media, food and drug companies are out to make addictive products that
do not have the best interests of the public in mind. Curing a disease
is not nearly as good as keeping people on your drugs for life. Most
major disease could be cured by a simple change of diet, exercise and
relaxation however their is no profit in researching or selling this,
so it is not done and what is done is overwhelmed by the other side of
the coin.
