Infuriation.

I'm in awe...

I read a sentence today in an article about the Bird Flu issue and it instantly incensed me. I don't understand how anyone anywhere can allow an attitude like this to continue when so many millions of lives are at stake. I can't say I'm shocked, but I'm certainly appaled. Here's the sentence...

Meanwhile, large Western drug companies that manufacture antiviral drugs are up in arms over threats by Indian and Chinese companies to make cheap clones.

Who do they think they are, these 'Western drug companies', that they're allowed to complain about others making antiviral meds when there is an antiviral drug shortage? A drug shortage that has the capabilities to kill millions of people? Their greed is putting a sizable chunk of the world's population at risk - possibly even myself! It's ridiculous that they even have the gall to complain about the possibility of a company making a 'cheap clone' antiviral medicine.

The almighty dollar has gotten entirely too strong. I'm off to lose my lunch now.

@#$%ing greedy bastards.
