Listen up the fact is we are told that the corporate tax rate has damaged corporations to the point that in order to hire people they need more tax breaks, that is a lie.

Rather than focusing on costing out developing a single entity, you have to consider the cost of the entire R&D function, both successes and failures.<br /><br />I attended a conference a few years back and a Squibb manager who made a presentation noted that the previous year the company had an R&D budget of $2 Billion and registered 1 new compound with the FDA.<br SteveMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08635340753358202750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-653895891370775262.post-13954727725769268842011-02-25T09:33:55.134-08:002011-02-25T09:33:55.134-08:00While I agree with most of your article, I think t...While I agree with most of your article, I think that your last couple sentences are wrong. Mental health problems are potentially fatal. Without drugs that treat mental illness, many people would be unable to work, would be fearful of leaving their homes, would suffer from constant debilitating panic attacks, would be unable to quiet the terrifying voices in their heads, and so on.

In addition the FDA is requiring more clinical trials and data which in turn costs more. Only 1-2 drugs out of every 10 in development make it through clinical trials thus a lot of money is never recouped.
