> The regulatory minefield

Ha! The FDA review board for a drug is allowed to own and trade pharmaceutical stocks, receive cash incentives and guarantees of future employment from companies under review, and generally relies on the summary findings of the company to make their decisions.

It is as much of a minefield as the FCC is to the Family Research Council, or congress is to big oil.




I took it that they were speaking to people trying to get in on the action and not the incumbents.
