We could learn a lot from crayons: some are sharp, some are pretty, some are
dull, some have weird names, and all are different colors....but they all
exist very nicely in the same box.

Carl,

It has to be because the drug companies own the power in Washington and who 
are not wanting a cheaper drug that will ease pain. I guess all I can 
suggest is to throw a rock at your favorite drug salesman!!! ;-))  My old 
German-Russian immigrant grandfather used to say, when he thought things 
were getting crazy here, "Some day there comes a revolution".  Maybe that is

what we need to bring some sense to our leaders.
