Can't advertise cigarettes on TV I think....
I dunno I don't really care or spend much time thinking about it.
Uh because I was responding to your cigarette post?And condoms help prevent deadly disease spread Dano, why did you ignore that one ?
ahs no adverse reactions and no bad side effects.
Ridiculous. Edwards plans to force drug companies not to market or advertise for new drugs for 2 years, because hey it lures people into trying to buy the more expensive drugs.
"Democratic presidential hopeful John Edwards said Sunday that prescription drug companies should wait two years to begin advertising their new products to consumers. "

Apparently people need government to protect them from advertising and marketing now.
So begins the leftwing "War on Advertising and Marketing", and I'm sure like all government programs it should expand to cover more and more, should throw a lot of innocent people out of work too...
Ads are not brainwashing, companies have NO power to make anyone pay for a goddam thing they want, maybe you are confusing them with government...More Dano bullshit:
Let's see what Dano PURPOSELY left out:
"The two-year delay would prevent television ads from driving consumers to drugs that HAVEN'T BEEN PROVEN SAFE, said Edwards, who also would require drug companies to GET FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION APPROVAL BEFORE LAUNCHING MAJOR AD CAMPAIGNS."
GOD FORBID we have a decent degree of confidence in a drug before allowing a manufacturer to attempt to brainwash the public into believing they need it.
Let's stop advertisements and marketing for food, after all it just increases the price of food and that is "bad". Nevermind that advertisements are the number one way that new companies get word of their product out to survive and keep fresh and more competition alive which helps lower prices in the long run.
Hmm most of the "food" commercials are for junk food anyway. Perhaps you have a good idea Dano.
Yeah faster approval for drugs that can kill as well. Are you familiar with the history of approved drugs pulled from the market and how much the number has accelerated in recent years ?
