Yes, you are a fucking idiot.

Here's how I know you are lying - two parts. Look at your original post:

They depend on investors so they can carry on their medical and drug research. Unfortunately, being investors they expect a return on their investment, and under the current administration they don't know who is going to be the owners of any discoveries they may find.
Since there is no ROI, they have pretty much discontinued their investing. From what I have been told, drug research in the US has pretty much come to a standstill while they wait to see what Obama does next.

Any legislation you may be talking about has come to light very recently, this week, last week, last month.
Pharma research is funded years out. From prototyping to production modeling, it takes YEARS of R&D to bring a product to market. So no news released this month is going to have any effect on a project commissioned and funded years in advance. Anything anyone is working on now was probably funded before Obama even took office and with the baby boomers retiring, there are zillions to be made.
Second part, big pharma is IN FAVOR of the Obama plan. Before it was even put on the table pharma lobbyists got everything they wanted and it's off the table. If you watched any tv at all you'd have seen the ad buys PHARMA has put in place IN FAVOR of healthcare reform.
Consider yourself owned, have a warm milk and hit the sheets.
Why don't you try posting this shit on Free Republic, they eat it up.
