Prescription Drugs
Did you know that Americans take more drugs than citizens of any other nation? And our drugs cost more here in the USA than they do anywhere else..did you know that? High price or not, we clamor for more. With that information, you would think that we are the healthiest nation in the world. Not! (We rank 37th in the world.) We're just one of the most gullible. Most Americans believe that we should pay more for our drugs because...somehow they are "better", simply because they were purchased in the USA. And we are the best customer of the world's pharmaceutical companies; in fact, there is a nationwide shortage of pharmacists because we love our drugs so much. Have you ever wondered if there was any connection between the number of prescription drug advertising spots on TV and the amount of drugs prescribed?
