It seems that the drug manufactors are not going to take 'Healthcare Reform' sitting down. There is a list posted on the FDA website that now lists major 'generic' drugs that are in short supply. It seems that the raw material to manufactor these drugs is dwindling, and they can't find more. It also seems that all the materials for non generic drugs are readily available. Not much for conspiricy theroy, but it does seem extreamly coincidental that this just happened after the passage of 'healthcare reform'

Since big Pharma donates scads of money to politicans don't expect any prosecutions for collusion or price fixing. Don't expect any bidding out of Medicare drugs either.

There was no fix to health care -only spreading around and increasing the opportunity for all of us to get goughed by a bloated, inefficient, predatory system.

Solution: vote everyone out of office that you can
