Yes I agree that these drug companies are run by some real bastards who do not give a damn about you and me and curing illness. All they care about is money, and they would rather treat symtoms than cure a person. The HP test is a quick and cheap way to learn what's really wrong with a person, and when diagnosed with HP the proper cure is cheap too. AM would go out of business tommorrow if there was a cure for all illness.

This makes me wonder, how many drug companies are sitting on cures for diseases but never release them because treating the symtoms is so much more profitable. I think this HP reneg (sp?) by AM is a big story... I wonder if Oprah or 60 Minutes would cover this?

For this example of the AM deciding not to sell a product that can lead to a cure and instead concentrating on masking symtoms I feel that we have few too many drug companies controlling our lives and too much regulation. I personnally feel that all drugs should be legal and I'll bet you that if they were you would see many cures come out of peoples garages just as we have seen so many great things come out of peoples own tinkering in the field of software and aerospace, avionics, auto, etc. The best things we have in this world come from the garages and collaborations of many. Having just a handful of profit hungry drug companies make all the drugs we're allowed to take is silly and dangerous.

I wish I had the balls to sell "street" drugs but I don't. I see Chem Trak as a way I can finally profit from the mindless and senceless war on drugs. In my opinion the war on drugs does nothing but subsidises criminals and thugs, the exact people we don't want having money in a capitalist society.

If all drugs were legal the emphesis could be on prevention and education, and the in home tests would still be useful.

Hey lets see if we can get Oprah or 60 minutes to do a story on AM's example of a drug company trying to stifle a test which can lead to a cure. I think this is a huge story that could turn out very positive for Chem Trak.
