Better Drugs and Minor Side Effects

     It is almost impossible to bring to market a drug that cures a major ailment without side effects.

If a patient accepts a prescription from a private doctor for a medicine with great positive effects, but at the same time, the drug has a few, negative side effects, the pharmaceutical company should not be sued.

Considering that the most irresponsible, pill-pushing, medical establishments are government institutions, a better solution than fining Big Pharma would be to completely dismantle Government Health Care.  Too few understand the dynamics of how nearly all of the market ills would disappear under a system of Capitalist Medicine.  Of course, there would still be some minor cases for the court system to clean up; but, that does not involve blindly sticking it to Big Pharma for millions out of envy.
