It seems that Jeremy Hunt, (our Health Minister) tried to
sound and look shocked when the The Daily Telegraph announced that
its under cover reporters had uncovered a scheme where by
Pharmaceutical companies help chemists to rip-off the NHS. It's all pretence of course, as I'm sure Jeremy, (he who was caught fiddling his rent
expenses) knows very well, that's the way this system works.
It seems that the chemists can
order drugs for the NHS and be overcharged by 50%, by the
pharmaceutical company, sell them on to the NHS, with their mark-up
on top, and then claim the over-charge back from the pharmaceutical
company. Another little fiddle would be for the pharmaceutical
company to send dupicate invoices, which the pharmaceutical
representative stated was, “slightly perhaps underhand”
Everybody knows that this is how
this corrupt system works, bribes, back-handers, slush funds,
duplicity, everything to get the edge on your competitor and rip-off
the public. We all know what “lobbying” is about, call it what
you will but it is all about paying for favours, but at the end of
the day every penny paid in bribes, back-handers, slush-funds, and
“lobbying” expenses, comes from you and I. These companies don't
make the money in the back room on a desktop printer, they collect it
from the public via their product or service. All the bonuses, bribes
and fat salaries are collected from you the public. The
pharmaceutical industry's alleged fiddles are paid for by you, the
money that changes hands in “lobbying, is paid by you. That's the
system we live in, a rip-off system for the very rich, they bribe
their way to greater wealth with our money. Ah, the wonders of
capitalism.
