Thought 2

Today at work while setting up a conference room (6 tables, "O" shape) my coworkers and I somehow got into a conversation about how the U.S. government controls and manipulates the research and selling of drugs. Apparently they regularly seek out small research labs around the country, steal any and all medicinal breakthroughs, and destroy the scientists' practices. A scientist in Texas discovers an effective treatment for 3 types of cancer, the government shows up and takes away all his rescources, and a couple months later a govt-funded medical research company unveils their new, effective cancer treatment.
Then my other coworker introduced the theory that the government (gotta love it!) is holding back on AIDS research because they think the virus is an effective population regulator. I was just thinking how great it would be for someone to walk in and find three minimum-wage earners tossing around conspiracy theories.
