Long time follower of your site yet normally silent. I thought this post was one of the best articles I’ve read in awhile on any of the blogs I follow. As someone else commented – your more recent work has been more engaging, keep up the great work!

Thanks GM
That quote was taped onto my computer monitor at the OIG when I was “escorted” from the building in 2004.

This guy Allen Jones is a kook. He was fired by the State of Pennsylvania. His conspiracy theory links the president with the pharmaceutical companies. If he is bashing a pharmacist, I would give the guy the benefit of the doubt, probably never accepted “perks” but did some work for the pharmaceutical companies which is common with pharmacists.

There has been many issues with pharmaceutical compmpanies and conflict of issues, espically with doctors. What needs more attention and dicipline is primary care doctors not reporting adverse side effects. Thw medical profession has been protecting the pharmceuticals companiens. Congress and the present administration has enacted medical malpractice laws that do not reveal the horrow stories of early death from medications. Obama, president elect choice of Tom Daschle as Health and Human Service and Jeanne Lmabrew as Health care Reform will actually make things worsee. Dashle is a lobbyist for healthcare and Lambrew is connected to Brookings Institution. The taxpaper is not representated.

I’m not a pharma basher, but it is really amazing how big pharma keeps getting caught up in these obvious payoffs — particularily for psychiatric drugs. While the article doesn’t mention it, you wonder if pharma is going to walk away unscathed again. I can only assume their motto is “live to fight another day.”

I’ll bet there’s some state pharmacists shaking in their boots this morning. Come clean folks - save yourself some prison time!

Let’s hope this the beginning of vindication for Allen Jones.
