Why Medications are Far More Dangerous than Defective Vehicles…
Toyota's problems with throttle controls and brakes haven't actually killed anyone as far as we know. Even if any deaths have occurred, their number would be extremely small compared to the number of deaths caused by approved pharmaceutical products.
These kill nearly 270 people each day in the United States alone, and that's according to conservative calculations published in the Journal of the American Medical Association. That's equivalent to a jumbo jet airliner falling out of the sky and crashing in a giant ball of flame every single day just in the U.S.
If you're concerned about public safety, there's no industry that's more dangerous than the pharmaceutical industry. All the automobile manufacturers combined can't even begin to approach the body bag count produced by Pharmaceutical misdemeanours.
A story was recently published about the deliberate cover-up of deaths caused by Avandia, a top diabetes drug made by GlaxoSmithKline. According to FDA scientists, this drug is linked to 83,000 heart attacks! The company knew about this increased risk -- and so did the FDA! Yet both the FDA and GSK kept this information from the public, said a U.S. Senate Committee report…and Avandia remains FDA approved!

For Toyota to even come close to this level of dangerous deception, the company would have to deliberately build high-explosive bombs into its cars that were randomly set off when drivers tapped the brakes.
If 200 cars a day exploded into huge balls of flame on America's roads, then Toyota might start to approach the level of fatalities caused by drug companies.

Fraud and Corruption…
The real difference between Toyota and the pharmaceutical conglomerates is that Toyota is trying to build safe cars while the pharmaceutical industry has no intention to do anything other than sell more drugs.. no matter how dangerous they are. The words "Scientifically proven, safe drugs”, often ring very hollow now!
Scare Mongering:
We are still being constantly bombarded with radio advertising for Swine flu vaccine even though it was a storm in a tea cup and has ended up posing little significant risk to the general population. But then what else is the government to do with millions of pounds worth of stock they were duped into buying with taxpayers money, that’s fast running towards it’s “due by” date…?
"Disease mongering" in order to sell more drugs people don't necessarily need is becoming a scary sales technique now!
