Well the points mentioned above have put quite a different slant on it now and yeah , it smacks of BS now . They always spout on about recovering their research costs , wouldn`t they recover that a lot quicker by selling the drugs a bit cheaper with a chance of higher sales . I don`t find Rats disgusting by the way , but hocking up something that furry just makes me gag a bit .

They're prescription drugs, so the price makes no difference. The problem is that people ordering pills from organised crime gangs on the internet have no way of knowing what's actually in them.

Not to us it doesn`t , but indirectly it does . NHS gets offered Brand X Wonderdrug for £1000 a box and decides that only the top 100 most serious cases can be treated with that . If the Brand X Wonderdrug is sold to the NHS for £250 a box then they can afford to treat a lot more patients . I`m no accountant or anything and there are probably a lot more contributing factors to it all . Let`s face facts , if it was that easy we would all reap the benefits , unfortunately people can be seriously ill and be denied treatment due to the cost of certain drugs and a huge waiting list for them ...... then the lure of Internet supplied drugs rears its head . "You can get this right now for £500" ....... for somebody seriously ill , they may be fooled down that path of fake drugs for some Cartel to rip them off

Come join me on the dark side young one. We need some awesomeness over here cos its usually just, well you know... a bit dark.



And lonely.













Viva la revolution my brothers and sisters!!!

I can imagine ones to thin the blood out yes , and in controlled amounts , but I think this lot are on about it being shovelled into a cement mixer and then patted into Pill shapes and flogged for a lot of money . I don`t know why they just don`t offer them a licence to produce the drugs , if they are going to all that trouble to counterfeit and make them look the same , they may as well provide them with the formula and the licence and make a profit out of it .
