1. I have to drive by Lilly HQ every stinkin day
and I want to hurl. They OWN the City of Indianapolis through their goddamned Lilly Foundation. I guess that is why one of the nicknames is Prozac City.

2. Nothing like having a stinking rich CEO preach to the "masses" ...
... about something he can easily afford, but millions can not.

3. If those 45 million people who have no medical coverage get coverage...don't you think
their doctors will be prescribing drugs to a few of them at least? I would think health care reform to cover all people would be good for the big pharma.

Am I wrong?
