The public is a bunch of hypocrites who want it there way all the time.They want to limit the profits of pharmaceuticals...what they don't understand is that the investing public doesn't like the government limiting profits. For instance, Amazon doubled the profit and got killed the next day. Google grew by ONLY 17%...and losing buckets of money. The market is fierce...if they kill big pharma...no one will make medicine. Pfizer will just simply quit selling to America if they limit them to a bullshit profit.</blockquote>
