This is sick...

The US was the lone vote against allowing greater access to cheaper, generic drugs against AIDS

Of course, UN resolutions don't generally mean anything, do they? All the same, though, it's still sick. The pharmeceutical companies should not have their profits protected over the health of the very ill and/or poor.

Disgusting.

Apparently the pharmeceutical companies may try to get the prices of drugs raised in Canada, because so many Americans are importing them rather than buying the drugs in the US (seeing as they're, what, double the cost?). It's sick that profit has more importance to them than saving and improving the quality of life for millions of people..
