<<Unfortunately, the capitalist engine that drove the USA to it's current "world leader" position is under daily attack.>>

Michael: I agree with that statement. Yet, I posted the story on drug companies to stimulate a little debate and discussion....I am familiar with the field since I used to work in sales and marketing for Merck and a start-up they developed called Astra Merck. After graduate school I transitioned into the media arena and recently I have been working for some young software firms.

I am aware of all the drug company arguments to justify the cost of their products. Yet, I am still frustrated that such a wealthy and successful country like the U.S. can have tens of millions of people who still can't afford healthcare coverage....Something's terribly wrong with the system...JMHO.

Enjoy the weekend.

Best Regards,

Scott

BTW, the only investment I have in the healthcare sector is MDCI -- an undervalued firm with great execution.
