lol.
FDA is the golden standard for medical testing for around the world (I worked for the FDA and that quote I'll quote one of the employee that stated it). After animal testing there are 4 phases of clinical testing.
You sound like all those libertarians that think free market is gonna some how reduce toxicity and dangerous drug from flooding the market.
That's some crazy pipe dream you got there.
These testing is also base on science and more importantly statistic (survival analysis and such). It is stupid as hell to just ignore it. Statistic is every where in lives and have increase the quality of our life including reliability and quantifying on what is statistic significant or not (random chance).
You are a perfect example of why I'm sick of debating libertarian and just straight up call it out.
Free Market is another excuse for ignorant. Whether it is ignorance of how the FDA and drug works to how the economy work (let's back everythign by the gold standard!).
- speedplane 9y agoThe FDA's approval process is to ensure only safe and effective products make it to the market. This is unquestionably good. The problem is that companies can take advantage of the inherent delays in this process to obtain undue market power, and impose monopoly pricing. The FDA should not reduce it's standards, but it should recognize that the expensive and drawn-out approval process creates large inefficiencies in that market, and they should at least strive to minimize those effects.
