If you ever had a doubt that Capitalism stinks, this article should persuade you. Yes indeed, Fuck Capitalism!!
Enkidu --------- Drugs firm blocks cheap blindness cure Company will only seek licence for medicine that costs 100 times more Sarah Boseley, health editor Saturday June 17, 2006 The Guardian A major drug company is blocking access to a medicine that is cheaply and effectively saving thousands of people from going blind because it wants to launch a more expensive product on the market. Ophthalmologists around the world, on their own initiative, are injecting tiny quantities of a colon cancer drug called Avastin into the eyes of patients with wet macular degeneration, a common condition of older age that can lead to severely impaired eyesight and blindness. They report remarkable success at very low cost because one phial can be split and used for dozens of patients. But Genentech, the company that invented Avastin, does not want it used in this way. Instead it is applying to license a fragment of Avastin, called Lucentis, which is packaged in the tiny quantities suitable for eyes at a higher cost. Speculation in the US suggests it could cost £1,000 per dose instead of less than £10. The company says Lucentis is specifically designed for eyes, with modifications over Avastin, and has been through 10 years of testing to prove it is safe. Unless Avastin is approved in the UK by the National Institute for Clinical Excellence (Nice) it will not be universally available within the NHS. But because Genentech declines to apply for a licence for this use of Avastin, Nice cannot consider it. In spite of the growing drugs bill of the NHS, it will appraise, and probably approve, Lucentis next year. Although Nice's role is to look at cost-effectiveness, it says it cannot appraise a drug and pass it for use in the NHS unless the drug is referred to it by the Department of Health. The department says its hands are tied. "The drug company hasn't applied for it to be licensed for this use. It wouldn't be referred to Nice until they have made the first move," said a Department of Health spokeswoman. "They need to step up and get a licence. If they are not getting it licensed, why aren't they?" New drugs for the condition are badly needed: those we have now only slow the progression to blindness. With Avastin, many patients get their sight back with just one or two injections. Avastin was first used on human eyes by Philip Rosenfeld, an ophthalmologist in the US, who was aware of animal studies carried out by Genentech that showed potential in eye conditions. This unlicensed use of Avastin has spread across continents entirely by word of mouth from one doctor to another. It has now been injected into 7,000 eyes, with considerable success. Professor Rosenfeld has published his results and a website has been launched in the US to collate the experiences of doctors from around the world. But although the evidence is good, regulators require randomised controlled trials before they grant licences, which generally only the drug companies can afford to carry out. Prof Rosenfeld said the real issue was drug company profits. "This truly is a wonder drug," he said. "This shows both how good they [the drug companies] are and on the flip side, how greedy they are." He would like to see governments fund clinical trials of drugs such as Avastin in the public interest. Rising drug bills are a big problem on both sides of the Atlantic. In the UK, said David Wong, chairman of the scientific committee of the Royal College of Ophthalmologists, doctors are fighting battles to persuade primary care trusts to pay for drugs to stop their patients going blind while they wait for Nice to decide on Lucentis and another expensive drug called Macugen. That decision is not expected before the end of next year. About 20,000 people are diagnosed with age-related macular degeneration in the UK each year. "From the patient's point of view, if they have an eye condition that deteriorates very quickly, there is no question of waiting," said Professor Wong. "We're talking about days and weeks, rather than months. The question is should we do nothing and say there is no randomised controlled trial to prove Avastin is of value?" He called for primary care trusts to agree to pay for the planned phasing-in of new drugs for the condition. Last night Genentech said its main concern over the use of Avastin to treat eye conditions was patient safety. "While there are some small, single-centre, uncontrolled studies of Avastin being performed, safety data on patients who are treated with Avastin off-label is not being collected in a standard or organised fashion," said a spokeswoman for the company. Pharmaceutical firms say they need to launch drugs at high prices because of the hundreds of millions of pounds spent on developing them. Critics point out that the company's calculations also include the marketing budget.

Big Lie
Quote:
The wife gets migraines pretty bad sometimes. The shit the doc gives her is the most toxic crap imaginable, something called Imitrex (sp?) that might as well be plutonium, the shit's poison. I was told by a local NORML fellow that a far, far better cure for her type of migraine is weed. A few hits of marijuana is effective and hundreds of times less physically harmful than the expensive perscription medicines they sell for it. Fact is, marijuana was used for cramps, headaches and nausea before we had a fucking DEA. Queen Victoria used it when she menstruated. Drug companies know grass would replace at least six of their billion dollar drugs and that's why we have a "war on drugs." They hate us because we're free, oh yeah.

From "Counterpunch"
Even the Bigboys say we're screwed... what's happening is what honorable bankers were warning against in the 80s. Had deregulation not happened, things would move slower but there would be accountability, and we wouldn't be in this mess.
For any human institution to work, it must be controlled. Unrestricted capitalism is like unrestricted cell growth, and capitalism has been compared to a type of cancer before. -- FJ. http://www.counterpunch.org/kolko06152006.html Quote:

Actually Stronza the solution to the problem you state should be obvious.
But first some basics. As Adolf Hitler wrote in "mein Kampf" the state should exist so to serve the people (with people i dont mean individual persons but the entity,the Volk),not the other way around as it is practiced today when the people serve the state. Taxes and other incomes of the state serve only one purpose: namely to be redistributed by the state among the people.And to those productive and needy members of our society more than to the rest.For example: white working class,big white families etc. Now to the solution of your stated problem,which suprisingly noone else mentioned: Nationalization! All the capital belongs to the hands of the state. Which means that all banks and credit institutes have to be nationalized by the National Socialist state.The individual wanting some capital will have to pay interest rates (which will be according his material status, for example poorer whites will pay lower rates than those who are materially speaking better off) to the state instead of to private hands as it is today. This state income again will in turn be spend for the Volk.
