Mike,

>>Something has to be done to reign in expensive drug prices and whatever it is will not be positive.<<

Have you ever looked at the distributors like Bergen Brunswig? It popped in the last few days, but not too long ago it was trading at about 16x 99 estimates and growing EPS faster than the drug companies.

It might be a way to take advantage of the booming health care, medical supplies, drug business, and favorable demographics without paying an arm and a leg or having to worry about the pipeline.
