According to an October Los Angeles Times report, the trade association Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America contracted to pay two writers a "six-figure" fee to write a novel about a national panic resulting from a fear that drug lobbyists had actually been trying to spread in Congress, specifically, that terrorists might poison lower-priced drug imports from Canada. (The Times reported that the association recently killed the project and blamed the whole idea on an unsupervised lower-level executive.) [Los Angeles Times]
I find it amazing what they will go through to keep Americans paying their high prices. I'd like someone to spread the rumor through congress that the Canadian imported drugs are made by American pharmaceutical companies.
Oh wait...they won't spread that, it's true.
