    Drugs and Wallstreet

    Big Pharma + WallStreet say patients top priority.

    Good find, Annie. Very interesting about insider trading and biotech.

    "An initiation into shamanic healing means a devaluation of all values, an overturning of the profane world, a peeling away of inveterate handed-down notions of the world, liberation from everything preconceived. For that reason, shamanism is closely connected with suffering. One must suffer the disintegration of one's own system of thought in order to perceive a new world in the higher space."

    Here's another drug trial corruption story. These items may seem a little off the topic of AD recovery, but the topic of drug trials is related to patient and doctor access to accurate drug information.
    I'm interested in the idea that drug research is supposedly objective and therefore reliable, while individual experience is considered subjective, and therefore unreliable. The corruption of the drug trial process seems to throw that formulation into question.

    Very interesting, annie.

    Luc -- we have to add something like this to the video about how drug trials are tampered with. If someone is trying to do insider trading on a new drug that's being tested, they might also suppress information that will adversely affect their investment.

    That's a really good point, Sheila. We will surely add it.
    Keep walking. Just keep walking.
