The Drugging of America: Why Money Trumps Health in the USA Healthcare System


Pharmaceutical manufacturing is a fantastically lucrative business.

In the last twenty or so years, it's managed to subvert medical research and practice turning the medical establishment into its own private distribution system.

The pharmaceutical industry employees one sales rep for every four doctors.

Research on drug effects has been virtually completely taken over by the drug industry.

The number of deaths caused by specific medications is often withheld by the FDA because it's considered a "trade secret."

Does this sound right to you?

You need to know just how deeply rooted the problem has become - and what needs to be done about it.

This is a trailer for a 50-minute documentary that was created to give an in-depth, academic perspective on the questionable marketing tactics of the pharmaceutical industry.

It features the commentary of investigative journalists and medical professionals including:

Dr. John Abramson, author of Overdosed America, and Prescription Access Litigation Project Director, Alex Sugerman-Brozan.

Other notable interviewees include Dr. Bob Goodman of Columbia University, founder of the 'No Free Lunch' program, and Dr. Jerome Hoffman of UCLA Medical School.
