“Being a sociopath can be a negative if you are serial killer, but a sociopathic CEO is sufficiently ruthless to fire thousands and not think twice about it if that is what it takes to save the company, while a normal human being can't bring herself to do that. Sociopaths have their uses.”

My God. I’m at loss for words.

I won't argue that. I was simply making a point about upper mgmt don't always have the peoples best interest in mind. That is what I was answering to the post I replied. End of subject

I am not a psychiatrist and appreciate your knowledge in that, but in the real world it is what I mentioned before. I am just more blunt than most like to hear, but that is what I specialize in in telling how it is....

I am not saying that about Pehl as I have no idea what he is about. I just met him once, we talked and he went and met with IMMU and here he is as our CEO.

Thats all I know.

If you think the vast majority of all top managers are crooks, you should put your money in coffee cans and bury them in your back yard.

> over the foot-dragging and dissembling when it came to Vioxx?

OT

This is not my understanding of the situation. There was never information that Celebrex—which remained on the market—was any safer than Vioxx. Merck ran post-marketing studies that Pfizer didn’t. Merck management made the decision that the ethical thing to do was to concede the market for COX-2 inhibitors even in the absence of head-to-head data.
