Wasn't it just a couple years ago - that GW and his FDA were telling us we couldn't trust these foreign (Mexico-Canada) drugs and banned US citizens from buying them (at a much cheaper cost which the pharmaceutical companies were crying to GW about :roll: )-- on the grounds then that they had not been FDA tested and that these foreign countries of Canada and Mexico's standards didn't meet ours.....

Interesting that this comes about now just when Congress and the consumers are all screaming the exact opposite- and want more oversight on their imported food and drugs- especially since Mexico is one of the largest violators....

I'm wondering whose costs will be reduced-- the pharmacetical companies that now want to get cheaper access to drugs or the consumer...Somehow I don't see it as GW looking to help out the average Joe on the street- that would go against his M.O......
:(

The leaders also plan to announce they will recognize the research of each country's food and drug regime in an effort to reduce costs and avoid duplication.

Yep-- It was just GW selling out to the large Pharmaceutical lobbyists bucks....

We used to have Senior Citizens bus's that would run into Canada once a month or so, so that they could buy their prescriptions... Lots of folks of all ages would go since in some cases they could buy the same drugs for as much as 90% savings....Even had Drug Stores set up in Billings and Great Falls (that GW had DEA and FDA raid, while he didn't seem to care about the Mexicans hauling tons of grass, coke, and meth across the border :roll:- gives them immunity :roll: ) that would take your prescription- fax it to Canada- and get your drugs mailed down to you or the store... Again at huge savings....

But then they used the argument of untested/unsafe drugs to close down the poor folks from buying there- while all knew the real reason was to protect the profits of the Corporate Pharmaceuticals elitists.... :( :( :mad:

That might explain a lot of why the Medicare Prescription Drug Act passed...History has shown that it was probably not for the benefit of the average schmoe---and then since over the years of revelations its been revealed it had so many sneaky, snidely, (illegal) moves involved in it- such as:

What some conservatives claim was outright lying to Congress by the Administration and threats by the Administration to fire government analyst Richard Foster if he revealed that the actual costs of the program was going to be $100 BILLION more over 10 years than they had portrayed it to be.....

It prohibits the Federal government from negotiating discounts with drug companies....(Wouldn't want Eli Lilly Co. to cut shares payouts :roll: :wink: )

The all night session and 3 AM and 5 AM votes to get it passed--(during which some conservative opponents later claim they were offered campaign funds (bribed) by Hastert and Delay to change their vote)...
