What is your recourse when a family member becomes addicted, or worse yet, dies from a prescription drug approved by the FDA and promoted by Big Pharma? Unless you have the financial resources to stand toe-to-toe with Big Brother, in a justice system corrupt from the highest seat to the lowest bailiff, you stand very little chance of winning a trial case and being awarded compensation, resulting in ZERO closure for the victim/victim's family...however, if a drug dealer off the street sells you poison, and you are fortunate enough to have them charged, you stand a much better chance of winning the case...and although you won't receive compensation, closure will come in the form of a prison sentence.
Quick math comparison; how many employees of the FDA/Big Pharma have been arrested and charged with a felony as a result of fatal overdose from prescription medicines...? Go ahead, I'll wait for you to look up the answer...ZERO! How many street level drug dealers have been arrested and charged with a felony as a result of fatal overdose from the drugs they were peddling? Care to look that answer up...I'll do it for you...so damn many that "privatized" prisons are now a booming industry.
Mass tort, no money needed. I have won several, you don't get any such notices?
Of course you need a government with courts to make that happen. Now, try to sue your illegal drug dealer and tell me how that works out.
Illegal drug dealers are almost never charged with the overdoses their clients have. since you looked that up for me though, what is the exact number?
Right...our prisons are overflowing with the warm bodies of drug dealers who were simply caught in possession of a controlled substance...what the feck was I thinking. I'd love to carry on this conversation further, but I see you already know everything and have NEVER been wrong a single day in your life. I come across enough know-it-alls to realize they are incapable of doing their own research...because then it would destroy the narrative that constantly replays through their minds.
oh, so you were lying about looking that up?
