New Poll Shows Big Pharma and Feds Among Most Hated Institutions in AmericaBy John Vibes The numbers revealed that 43% of those surveyed had negative views of the Big Pharmawhile just 35% had positive views. Negative views increased while positive views decreased from reported responses to the same questions last year. This leaves the industry with a negative net-positive rating of -8 in 2015, explained Gallups Jim Norman. Norman added that the pharmaceutical industry is now rated one of the worst industries.The slide in net-positive ratings for the pharmaceutical industry, from +4 to -8, places it among the lowest-rated industries, which include the legal field (-5), the healthcare industry (-6), the oil and gas industry (-13) and the federal government, which comes in dead last (-29), he said. Some of the sectors that enjoyed more positive views were the technology, restaurant, and accounting industries. According to Gallup, the pharmaceutical industrys decline began in the early 90s. As far back as 1991, 73 percent of Americans said they considered the high cost of prescription drugs an important reason for rising healthcare costs, Norman said. Like many of the business issues we face today, the problem with the drug industry is that it is controlled by a government-protected corporate cartel. This allows a select few mega-corporations to dominate the market and prevents entrepreneurs from developing new products that could threaten this monopoly. Without having to worry about any kind of competition, the operators of this cartel can make their products as harmful and ineffective as they like. Thanks to government protections, corrupt pharmaceutical companies are able to make their products more addictive and less effective so they can create return customers and extend their profits. After all, if a medication is effective at curing a patient, they wont continually use and purchase that drug. However, even if the drug is mediocre but has addictive properties it will become a regular part of the patients monthly budget. Because of the pharmaceutical companies stranglehold on government and the governments willing collusion, pharmaceutical giants have been able to abuse American consumers and patients for decades. These disreputable practices, however, are not without consequence as the new Gallup poll incontrovertibly demonstrates.

Unlike Gasoline which can be lived without, the Meds people take every day SHOULD have strict profit regulations. One branch of Big Pharma which is most deservedly hated is the vaccine makers, who have caused to be put in place laws preventing them from being sued for any adverse effects of vaccines such as autism, brain damage, and death, caused by vaccine adjuvants like mercury and aluminum, etc. There is no penalty no matter how many people they kill or disable. This gives them NO incentive to make vaccines safe or effective. They have also succeeded in having passed, such as recently in California, laws disallowing children to attend public or private school if they have not had all the recommended vaccines. This legal assault on your body and brain will likely soon be extended to adults as well.
