> I'm not sure what you mean when you say thats an exaggeration. Perhaps "only" was a poor choice of words, as I don't want to sound like I'm disparaging the free market. However, the main reason that pharmaceutical companies market any new drug is to make a profit.That's what I was thinking, I'd prefer "main" instead of "only". Thanks for replying,
