Just One More Thing

The Dems say: We just need one more thing to pass the Health Care Bill.  More Taxes on the Pharmaceutical Industry.

That should give Big Pharma a *severe* case of heartburn. The Dems just said, "The previous bribe wasn't big enough."
 
What a dumb b&*#h. No, seriously. What kind of idiot is going to blather (on the record) about trillions of dollars of revenues!?

So let's tax "the rich" until they flee the country, hide their wealth (so much for investment), or go John Galt. Why not tax the robber-baron pharmecutical companies as well? What's the worst that could happen?

Aside from a horrendous brain-drain from US territories, loss of innovation and new drugs/treatments (which provide so much to real human beings), and collapse of the American pharmecutical industry, that is?...

It's not as if history shows that resources flow away from resource-hostile environments to resource-friendly environments, or anything like that.

No, wait, I tell a lie...
