Teo...is it your assertion that a company engaged in pharmaceuticals should only appoint plumbers or audio cable manufacturers to their board? We wouldnt want anyone on a corporate board to have any knowledge of the industry would we? That would be the equivalent of putting someone who has filed bankruptcy multiple times in charge of your financial future...oh wait...
I’d ask you to not put words in my mouth and then come off as sneery and dismissive based on your projected self assessment of me.
That’s a tactic to use emotions to help a point be dismissed by the self and any others who might be looking in..
It’s disingenuous and I’m calling you out on it. I don’t have a solution but neither do you.
It could be fair to say..the current scenario can be seen as an an abject failure - when it comes to the ideals of democracy and rule of law as a constitutional pairing.
There are hundreds, literal hundreds of far more damning points and reports from accredited and reliable news sources that can be brought to bear on the discussion.
This probably would not do much good, as this is entrenched warfare (these sorts of threads.)
So I’ll step away from this thread, not in some holier than thou kind of mindset, but knowing it was probably not wise to get involved in the first place.
The desire to get involved (probably for some of us), is tied to knowing that we are coming to a point, in this world.. where there is precious little space or room (if any) left for the wise and thinking to step away from the given ugly fracas of ’psychopathology as rulership’ being the norm in most countries of this world.

As to your point of what to do, well... other countries have strong laws against the scenario of norm for the the CDC, FDA, FTC, etc....where the public servants cannot be party to involvement in for-profit corporations, either before or after their tenure at the given government office.
These governments do this, order to deal with the issue of collusion and crime being a problem in such scenarios where there are no controls or limits of such, on the given government department heads.
Yet they get things done just fine.
In most cases, with less actual recorded RICO-ish problems, by a notable amount. Usually with more untainted benefit to the public.
