Citas de empresas farmacéuticas

• Las grandes farmacéuticas necesitan enfermos para prosperar. Los pacientes, no las personas sanas, son sus clientes. Si todo el mundo se curara de una dolencia o enfermedad concreta, las empresas farmacéuticas perderían el 100% de sus beneficios con los productos que venden para esa dolencia. Lo que todo esto significa es que, debido a que la medicina moderna está tan fuertemente entrelazada con la cultura de los beneficios financieros, es más una industria de la enfermedad que una industria de la salud.

• Competition makes things come out right. Well, what does that mean in health care? More hospitals so they compete with each other. More doctors compete with each other. More pharmaceutical companies. We set up war. Wait a minute, let's talk about the patient. The patient doesn't need a war.

• Well, as I understand it, the main supporters are beer companies and the pharmaceutical companies. I'd like them to show me the dead bodies from marijuana. But they can't because there aren't any.

• Ahora no es el momento de dar mayores protecciones a las empresas farmacéuticas que ponen en el mercado medicamentos inseguros como Vioxx. Tales protecciones no tienen nada que ver con la crisis de seguros de responsabilidad civil a la que se enfrentan los médicos y deberían eliminarse de este proyecto de ley.

• These pharmaceutical company executives are dope dealers and they should be treated worse, and more roughly than dope dealers. When you're talking about millionaire and billionaire executives at pharmaceutical companies, these are people with something to lose if threatened with jail. Frog-march them out of their door in suburbia, handcuffed and surrounded by DEA officers, with their children and neighbours watching.

• Desde la década de 1920, prácticamente toda la educación médica y de salud pública continua está financiada por las empresas farmacéuticas. De hecho, hoy en día, la FDA ni siquiera puede decir a los científicos de la salud la verdad sobre los contaminantes de las vacunas y sus posibles efectos. La agencia está atada y amordazada por leyes de propiedad y acuerdos de no divulgación a los que les obliga la industria farmacéutica. No olvidemos que la industria farmacéutica, como grupo de intereses especiales, es el principal contribuyente a los políticos del Capitolio.

• And these [pharmaceutical] companies are still threatening to sue. And it's like, you know, do you not have a conscience? Do you not want the world to be a better place? You're still making a profit. How much more of a profit do you want to make?

• Junto con nuestra pasividad, estamos entrando en una fase profundamente masoquista Todo el mundo es víctima hoy en día, de los padres, de los médicos, de las empresas farmacéuticas, incluso del propio amor.

• On one hand we encourage and allow major pharmaceutical companies to openly hook vast sectors of our population on narcotics, and then we cut them off and throw them in jail, and moralize about it. It is clearly a huge, huge, and growing problem. It's devastating. We need to treat it as a health crisis, which it is, and stop moralizing.

• I am not against the pharmaceutical companies. I love them. That's not the issue. The issue is, in some cases, when they do these clinical trials, they control the data. They analyze the data. In some cases, they even write the article. And that leads to at least the perception, if not the reality, that there's a conflict of interest.

• En mi opinión, esto no es extremismo de la izquierda. Esto es lo que el pueblo estadounidense apoya encuesta tras encuesta. Apoya el derecho al trabajo. Apoyar salarios dignos. Apoyar la acción climática real. Apoyar a los pequeños bancos comunitarios que conceden préstamos a la gente corriente y a las pequeñas empresas, no a estos bancos demasiado grandes para quebrar que nos estafan, que hunden la economía a costa de los contribuyentes. Apoyar un sistema sanitario de opción pública, no el Obamacare, que ha sido un despilfarro para las compañías de seguros y farmacéuticas.

• They're [[harmaceuticals companies] just making a killing out of people's death. And they're benefiting by people's suffering. And I find that obscene. I find it ridiculous in this day and age, that that would happen. And it took President Clinton to go to rogue pharmaceutical companies to copy the antiretroviral drugs for a fraction of the cost.

• El campo de la atención oncológica estadounidense está organizado en torno a un monopolio médico que garantiza un flujo continuo de dinero a las empresas farmacéuticas, las firmas de tecnología médica, los institutos de investigación y las agencias gubernamentales como la Administración de Alimentos y Medicamentos (FDA) y el Instituto Nacional del Cáncer (NCI) y organizaciones cuasi públicas como la Sociedad Americana del Cáncer (ACS).

• I'm not critical of the people who do psychotherapy. The therapists in the trenches have to face an awful lot of the social, political, and economic failures of capitalism. They have to take care of all the rejects and failures. They are sincere and work hard with very little credit, and the HMOs and the pharmaceutical companies and insurance companies are trying to wipe them out. So certainly I am not attacking them. I am attacking the theories of psychotherapy.

• NAFTA and GATT are quite similar. They both have highly protectionist elements. They're kind of a mixture of liberalization and protection designed to expand the power of transnational corporations. They're very basically investor's rights agreements. One crucial part in both is the "intellectual property right," which is a funny way of saying that corporations, like pharmaceutical companies, will have near-monopolistic rule over future technology. This now includes product as well as process rights.
