You may not remember VIOXX. I was working at FDA when this scandal broke. Politics and money got this drug approved. A whistleblower got it exposed.

- lotsofpulp 6y agoI can agree that corruption exists at the FDA (and every other organization). I don't agree that it has been completely useless or even had a net negative effect for the quality of life for most Americans. More transparency would be nice, more data from more frequent experiments would be nice. But the point is, they are using scientific principles (over the long term, I can't say for specific administrations).
