That is obscene.

Funnily enough, people don’t like taking something that isn’t safe and at least somewhat effective…

That can’t be true, big pharma is all about making money not spending it

I suggest putting that to the test by selling a non-FDA approved drug with a big “Not FDA approved” on the packet. See how many sell.
Doesn’t seem obscene at all. Each of those drugs could benefit hundreds of millions of people, costing a few dollars per person. Seems like money very well spent.
Spending 3.8 billion dollars on a football team. That’s obscene. Spending 2.4 billion dollars for a single B-2 stealth bomber? Now that’s obscene.

That might increase a bit now that they’ve banned testing on large primates.

And what of pot-plants?
They grow in the ground and don’t cost anything
I think the FDA role should be limited to supplying msds for drugs.
