But those nice life extending drugs, and devices are developed because
of the profit motive. Last job I had was part of a Bio-med company
developing a cure for stage 1 incontinence in women. Investors poured
$45,000,000 in to the company. Problem was bad management, and we
failed in clinicals and they may have recovered 3-4 million in the
end. How many groups would bet $45 million if not a prospect of
gaining 4-5x that amount in the end?


so...i reckon they don't have that stuff in canada, uk, france?

Potential side effects include heart attack, stroke, liver failure,
acne, erectile dysfunction, and anal leakage. If you experience any of
these symptoms consult your doctor.

I'm convinced that many, if not most, of these "life extending" drugs
are at best useless and at worst harmful -- especially the ones that are
touted in TV commercials.
