The Real Face of the FDA
Added 2021-09-05 19:03:12 +0000 UTCWhat role does a regulator like the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) actually play? In this episode we examine the FDA, it's capture and control by the pharmaceutical industry and how this fits into US state-monopoly capitalism.

Thanks for bringing some light relief along with information to this otherwise very depressing subject. Just an aside, everyone my age remembers seeing people affected by thalidomide.
