DANGER ALERT! Seniors shopping for prescription drugs from fuzzy foreigners. DANGER!



| Reddit | Tumblr | Digg | FARK

Oh heavens no, the seniors are looking at completely unsafe countries such as the UK, Europe, Australia and New Zealand. Don't they know that they are playing with fire because we can never trust those shifty foreigners? I mean heck, those damned Canadians are shifty enough. Try and forget for a moment where many of the Big Pharmaceutical companies are located for the purpose of this fear-based policy. (Whether or not these pharmaceuticals, approved by the FDA or not, are safe is yet another question.)

  • Novartis - Switzerland
  • Bayer - Germany
  • GlaxoSmithKline - UK
  • Hoffmann LaRoche - Switzerland
  • Aventis (who provided 2.6M extra flu shots to the US last year during the crisis) - France
Now compare this to foods people might eat on any given day:
  • Bananas - Central America
  • Lamb - New Zealand
  • Beef - Canada (with and without Mad Cow)
  • Lobster @ Red Lobster - Central America
  • Shrimp - Vietnam/SE Asia
  • Dannon products (yogurt, etc) - French company
  • Coffee - Central America, Vietnam, South America
  • Hellman's Mayo (Unilever) - UK/Netherlands
  • Bertolli Olive Oil (Unilever) - UK/Netherlands
  • Nestle products - Switzerland
  • NutraSweet (in all of its goodness) - US of A
