Jack Conway is the attorney general up Kentucky in recently while he was being
to have post live he
said some very powerful words about the pharmaceutical companies here in the
United States he said
sometimes their approval he's referring to the FDA
gets hijacked the approval process gets hijacked
and the reason why he said that is because very recently the FDA approved
the drug
it is a pain killer that highly highly potent
and controversial it's known as though hydro and its more powerful than oxy
cotton or
any other pain medication that you see in the pharmaceutical industry
at this very moment now the reason why it's all controversial is not just
because a bit potency
there was a panel other scientific advisers and they said this is a really
bad idea
in back the panel had voted 11 to two
to reject the drug as unsafe I think about that for a second
their scientific panel says overwhelmingly don't
deal with don't approve this right their peers like Nair
don't think so and a proven anyway why
cuz there's money to be made you think so and those guys are going to work for
the drug companies
after they rattle the FDA you think so them didn't *** grammys before
they were the FDA now the particulars are those people
you know is one thing but the revolving door of the government
and the giant corporations is a solid back and it's in the back up everybody's
head
you one day I could work for them no one day I could have a big
jackpot interview with Jack Abramoff who was the corrupt lobbyist who spent time
in jail was now reform
when he explains how he got people hooked and got him to do all these
different things legislators and regulators like this
to the number one trick was just tell them all you really smart
maybe a few when you're done with this government job we can you be a nice job
in our lobbying
I it you know the company
that's where the real money this so I mean
this site to say don't do it and they do it anyway of course there are employed
by the money
it's a complete and utter disaster for instance here's a very specific example
a bit
the diagnostic and statistical manual also known as the DSM
is heavily influenced by the pharmaceutical companies and the way
that it works is of course there's a panel researchers
that make I that didn't come up with the type so
diagnoses that you find in that manual
and the work with pharmaceutical company so all the fun in normal behaviors that
you know what you notice is a normal person or experiences unknown person or
disorders
at all the Sun in their medications for those disorders were so heavily
medicated
now going back to the issue was a hydro I wanna give you more information about
exactly how researchers really feel about this drug and its potency
on february twenty-second more than 40 health experts from nonprofit group sent
a letter to FDA Commissioner Margaret Hamburg
urging her to reverse the agency's approval
and the issue with this according to Jack Conway is
it not tamper resistant its five to ten times more powerful
than other hydrocodone drugs and it can be crushed
so that's a really big problem with painkillers people will crush them and
I'll snort them and I'll do whatever it is and with this
it's not resistant to that they're doing it on purpose
they become the new drug dealers they get it the IOC's code on
oxycontin was known as hillbilly *** right so let me give you some numbers on
that right
but it between 1999 and 2010 there was a 400 percent nationwide surge in sales a
prescription painkillers
and what happened there was a four-hole spike in drug overdoses
an overdose deaths between 1999 and 2010
right so they're a pain killers prescription painkillers go up
so overdoses right they know their crushing the some people a check on
where say with an attorney general
I know people are doing this make a tamper-resistant on purpose
they don't make a tamper-resistant and they make it even more important
why cuz they know that the people are using it
for drugs they've basically we legalized
hardcore drugs and tall big farmer go and make profit of a bit
Ann Arbor FDA helps along that process
and sanctions that makes it perfectly legal
they're the new Big Brother drug pushers n the
they're doing it right under our nose so there was an investigation into OCS
oxy cotton specifically in what they found was
pharmaceutical companies inadvertently that led to an increase in ***
addiction thanks to drugs like oxycodone
so what happened was they put it on the market they encourage doctors to
prescribe it because they said hey guess what this actually
isn't very I addictive so if you are our clients for your patients are in pain
you can prescribing you're not to worry about any adverse side effects
a course that was misinformation and doctors started prescribing it
people got very very addicted to it so as a result
arm the FDA and governmental agencies realize this is a really big problem
people are very addicted to these painkillers
so they told doctors that they need to stop they need to be very selective
in prescribing these painkillers and what happened
people that were already addicted to it we're desperate and of course we don't
have enough programs to help with rebuilt Asian which is criminalize
people put them in prison
but now they're looking for the drug they're looking for the fix and they can
get
for much cheaper in the black market in the form of ***
so now out there all these *** addiction throughout the country if you
look at statistics there increasing significantly
because I love people who were originally dated to painkillers
prescription painkillers
now assuming that situation better it appears were only making it worse
now I know that there was a guy who campaigned on change in said that he
would not be
addicted to Big Pharma I he talked about how
the previous administration made a deal with the big drug companies
a and that he wouldn't do likewise
and guess what he did likewise not only did he give them a big monopoly
in the Affordable Care Act but now here's the administration do they have
the a saying
have at Haas make it even more potent and
charge what you like because we just legalized hardcore drugs while we still
bust people for smoking simple but
between 1996 and 2011 and again prescription painkillers have a huge
factor in this
up the number of people who ended up in substance abuse treatment centers in
Suffolk
as a result in here when jumped $425 per cent
%um as long as people make money maybe we should you hear about drugs
like no war on drugs yeah until we can make a buck adamant
made that's what did you think the pharmaceutical companies don't know that
people are getting addicted to this
they're not doing it despite that they do it because a black man
