million...minimum..required to get each med to market...and
to pay for the huge proportion that incur this cost and do
NOT get to marketthe cost of the ingredients is not the issue..
that IS the issue with your ginseng junk...which can be
grown in a gardenwhich is not cheap either..since it doesn't do squat
anyway..hawki.....

you're awfully intolerant of other people who go for
the big markups.-- David Wright :: alphabeta at prodigy.net These are my

be likely to be paying. Some of the math (markup
percentages) is also wrong.-- David Wright :: alphabeta at prodigy.net These are my

months or more.Second, your opinion about the value of ginseng is stated in
a vacuumn and is of no value whatsoever.Thirdly I didn't write the article nor offer an opinion. The
people who are condeming your pharmaceutical companies are
your own government. You really should try to demonstrate
some tiny bit of integrity. -

in a vacuumn and is of no value whatsoever.On the contrary, a little web searching showed that the same
product was available from sources other than you at a much
lower price.Quoted message said:

You offered an opinion by posting it in the first place.
