4- SELL THOSE DRUGS on TV!...SCARING US IS HOW DRUG COMPANIES TRY IT, EVERDAY!.....

SEEN THE LATEST BILLIONS OF $$$$ FINE BY A MAJOR U.S. DRUG COMPANY FOR SELLING THE AMERICAN PUBLIC BOGUS DRUGS THAT WE THOUGHT HELPED OUR CHILDREN and ELDERLY?????
A) How to scare the heck out of every American, with the constant battering of every known, and many more unknown diseases to mankind, are now constantly being thrown at us to buy. CANCER?...male impotency?...NO insurance?...and then the drug company ads cleverly hit us with scare tactics to get us TO BUY their drugs, with actors smiling and dancing to the tune of "we'll help you! and make it all go away IF you buy and take our drugs!"
B) It's all a ripoff, America, using clever scare tactics.
And it's time that we also consider switching to non-commercial networks for a much needed breather. Better yet, tune out and off of "regular" television as we know it, with the constant "illnesses" the drug companies claim that we have, describing them in detail. Listen to your stero instead...or XM radio.
C) I used a stopwatch recently and discovered the number of minutes and seconds used to bombard us with a myriad of illnesses and diseases during one hour of afternon soaps, making us think that we have the illness. Was a good 20 minutes.
Especially unnerving are the "new" meds with clever, catchy names developed to treat us, with describing their long list of possible side effects to make sure that if we sue them it was OUR fault! They tell us...TAKE A PILL, and "it's" better or even cured.
We don't want to hear about possible (?) running out of our ears or drooling from the corner of your elbow if we take their allergy med during lunch or during supper hours.
D) And what's even more disgusting and irritating? The drug companies consider us ignorant enough to air the same commercials over and over and over.
"CALL NOW!!!!" Ever heard that command at the conclusion of a pitch to sell you everything from pet insurance to sweeper mops to magic car wax?...and has the price ever been anything but $19.95?...and that they'll send you double, even triple your order of products if you call within the next 17 minutes? Shipping and handling, of course, will be EXTRA....how much extra?
E) Lowell "The Hammer" Stanley, too. If you've missed either on any TV station, you must be watching HBO or STARZ, if you have the set turned on. By the way, there's a NEW Lowell "The Hammer" Stanley! What suddenly happened to the "old" one?
