Today, I have to write an ad selling sulfa drugs in bulk because the company client has a large stockpile of sulfas and has heard that the government may be about to pull them off the market. I’m supposed to help sell the stuff to a bunch of other drug companies to prevent our client from taking the loss. Spread it out, let the other companies take the loss. Then again, maybe they won’t have to take a loss, maybe they’ll be allowed to sell their stock out before the product is banned. Maybe it’ll only be the people who will have to suffer by taking a drug that is being banned, probably for reasons of sufficient danger to health. Doesn’t that shit?
