Look at these pharmaceutical CEO salaries and look at the millions of people who have to choose between food and a life-saving drug - then tell me this is not capitalism gone amok. American capitalism must claim a conscience and our government must claim a soul. #repairamerica

Pharmaceutical CEO salaries: Merck: $55 million Pfizer: $50M Eli Lilly: $30M Johnson & Johnson: $26M AbbVie: $23M This greed must end. The function of prescription drugs must be to protect and improve human health—not make corporate executives unfathomably rich.

Never going to happen - let’s be clear and very realistic here - if America didn’t claim one in 1865 or there after for the atrocities then - a few drugs and profit will not do it now. Bell of the ball forces a change - maybe - the country may burn to the ground 1st.

Government claims many souls—it’s kind of the general business model. Power concedes nothing—you must defend your own souls.
