A shocking statistic was found in a report from the U.S. Geological Survey, a study of pesticide and herbicide use from 1992 to 2012. During the two decades, an estimated 2.6 billion pounds of Monsanto’s glyphosate-based herbicide was used on America’s agricultural land.

Blame government created monopolies not the free market for CEO Shkreli’s drug price gouging!
Once again capitalism is being blamed when it doesn’t exist in the pharmaceutical industrial complex. What is being over looked by most of the mainstream media is the history of Daraprim.
It’s not a new drug, but one that was approved by the Food and Drug Administration in 1953. The patent long ago has expired.
