The Cycle of Complicity: Money Over Morality

The intertwining relationships between the pharmaceutical industry and regulatory bodies create a corrupt cycle, exemplified by the Sackler family's influence. A significant number of former FDA heads join the very industries they once regulated, raising ethical concerns about conflicts of interest. The Sacklers not only contributed to the opioid crisis but previously instigated the Valium crisis, manipulating systems to evade accountability. Historical patterns reveal a troubling precedent where financial power trumps moral responsibility, allowing major players to avoid legal repercussions and continue exploiting vulnerable populations.
