[QUOTE="McHunt, post: 3335135, member: 9853"] I don't know. They're companies. All companies need to make as much money as they can. Pharmaceutical reps are like any salespeople. The term "Big Pharma" is loaded. It's not a real thing. It's an insult masquerading as a market sector. It describes a whole bunch of successful pharmaceutical companies who have commissioned their own research, peer reviewed it, conducted RCT's, produced their own drugs, quality controlled them, and marketed them. Some will be more effective than others. Some of the papers behind the drugs might not be as convincing as you'd like. Issues arise. Sometimes serious. And then new drugs will come along and supplant them. Anyone using the term Big Pharma is always prepped for a fight, with conspiracy stories in their quiver. My experience is it's fairly pointless engaging anyone who uses this term, any more than other loaded terms like "lamestream media," "fossil fuel companies," "libtards," "racists," "deniers," "drug cheats," "islamophobe," "kafir," "street shitter," etc. The argument is already in the term. As for approval boards being corrupted by corporate funding. Maybe, I don't know. Look through the qualifications and sheer number of experts on our Advisory Board: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.tga.gov.au/committee/advisory-committee-vaccines-acv[/URL] I'll tell you who is way more untrustworthy than "Big Pharma:" 1. Small Pharma: often don't conduct any research. 2. Vitamin companies: mostly based on not much more than old wives tales. Poor quality control. 3. Health food stores: mostly overpriced shit products that at best are harmless, combined with poor advice backed by pseudoscience. 4. Chiropractors: quacks 5. Acupuncturists: quacks 6. Homeopaths: quacks 7. TCM: good at massage, dubious medicine 8. Nutritionists: eat less, mostly vegetables. There's your degree. 9. Organic merchants: overpriced, shitty produce, rarely any benefit 10. Skin care: mostly ineffective 11. Fairtrade: get top dollar for your worst produce 12. Astrologers: lol 13. Environmental reporters: dumb, biased, unqualified. 14. Renewal energy lobby: faulty data, follow the money [/QUOTE]
