The Revolving Door: FDA's Gottlieb Joins Pfizer Board

[Annette Rogers]

During his time at FDA, Gottlieb used questionable tactics to push for draconian regulations against the vaping industry. Now he's walked right into a lucrative seat on the board of the maker of the quit smoking drug Chantix. Let's connect a few of these dots, shall we?

Chantix is the same suicide-drug as Champix

So, both will help to kill smokers and vapers.

You know despite all of it, I can't help kinda liking Gottleib (I have had a few days to process the news.)

If it wasn't "for addiction" Chantix would be outlawed, I truly believe. Same thing for methadone/suboxone.

You start digging into those drugs and you are like, "No wonder the insurance company will pay for them." I mean.... Early death from this lot is SO much cheaper than COPD.

Gottleib, I am disappointed in you, you should have gotten into tobacco stock, seriously (or didn't he too? I forget.)

I just know that guy vapes secretly and has his stockpile complete. I'm fairly certain.

Wiki about Gottlieb:
He was elected as an independent member of the Board of Directors of Pfizer, Inc on June 27, 2019.

Yes, he's a vile creature alright. LOL maybe I have had more than a few days to process the news.

It's kind of like-- if you had to lick a bunch of toads? Over time, you would come to find one slightly LESS distasteful than the rest (I have a hunch mine might be the psychedelic one) and you would develop one where you are like, "I really hate this still, but I hate it LESS than the other toads."

I think I turn into a princess now, but I have to marry Gottlieb and think what a fun fairy tale that would make.
