Episode 62 - The Big, The Bad & The Pharma

As we continue in our Money over Matters series, it’s time to talk about the giant elephant in the room. Big Pharma. Now while we’ve said A MILLION times before, western medicine and pharmaceuticals 100% have their place and their need. We are NOT discrediting this. However… Do we honestly still believe that these companies only care about our health & well being? Do we honestly not see the mass amount of corruption, lobbying & all around fuckery? For some of us, we’ve always had an idea that something was up with these companies. It’s one thing to have a business and make money. We aren’t stupid. We know that you need to make money. But how much money though? Why are those in this industry becoming billionaires while some people in the world don’t even have running water? Or the fact that some companies can make a cheaper, generic version of a treatment but choose to push the most expensive….. that doesn’t seem sus to anyone? Increasing an HIV medication from $13.50 to $750 seem like client care? Doesn’t really add up to any of us. But hey what do we know? We are just some fringe minority, second class citizens who wear tins suits & have unacceptable views 😜 You def DON’T wanna hear what we have to say about these SOBs…. Or do you?! 😏 Yaaaaaaa you doooooo!! Join us and our fave babe Meg as we “mostly” stay on topic about The Big, The Bad & The Pharma!!
