How are AMERICAN PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANIES any different from Mexican Drug Cartels?

    The workers at a pharmacy do not murder other rival pharmacy workers. 
    They do not sell drugs for recreational usage. They sell for medical reasons. 
    They do not kidnap people.
    They do not smuggle people into the country. 
    They do not participate in human trafficing (sexual slavery)

    Let’s see...

    * They both sell drugs for major profits.  Cartels use pushers; Parma’s use TV ads and doctors.
    * They both traffic drugs.  Cartels sneak them over borders; Parma’s change the names.
    * They both murder people.  Cartels use guns and bombs, Parma’s jack up the price of needed life-saving medications beyond what people are able to pay (just to boost their profits).
    * They’re both con artists.  
    * They both bribe officials to "get their way".  Prams just call theirs "lobbying".
    * They both have the same objection - get the customer hooked so they will keep coming back.
    * Despite what either may claim, their only objective is money (and getting as much as they can - at any cost).

    Despite their appearances they’re basically the same.

    Thats kinda what I figgered superficially m'dear. I thank you for fleshing out the specific details that made my assumption solid. I appreciate it bigly. Some folks have to decide whether to buy food, pay rent or get their prescriptions filled. They cut back on the amount they take. America provides lots of choices. To die or not to die is one of them. :(
