Sure they love to push the myth that they spend almost all the money you
give them on research, but in fact its only 13.4%, or roughly what other
high tech companies spend on R&D. They are really marketing companies,
spend 24.4% of sales in that area.

I hate the fact that the biggest contributor to our high drug costs is
the noxious ads that are illegal in almost every other country.
