I don't really believe in the pharma mafia - there are bad people just like anything else but I think it is a problem in all industries, where profit is the primary driver and governments being to close to them.
I think pharma is still special as i know some of the lobby folks out there - much stronger as from other industries.
Not really the lobby for all industries is big. Just look at food.
So you mean Food is not big in lobbying? Where do you take this info from? Just curious
EDIT - Just saw this where food is not listed (thought the meat and fast food industry is big in there): https://www.opensecrets.org/lobby/top.php?indexType=i
No I mean food is just as big, as are the oil companies and tech. I think the perception that the Drug lobby is worse comes from the fact that we have higher expectations of them.
That might be true indeed - pharma are always the bad boys in our minds
