In 2003, Clark was on the Today show pushing people to buy drugs from Canada. Soon after, he got a nasty letter from officials in the FDA. They chastised him for suggesting people buy drugs across the border instead of in the States. Its such a big deal to the U.S. drug makers and their cronies in the federal government that resources were diverted away from the war in Iraq and spent on the crackdown of Canadian drugs. Thank goodness that isnt happening anymore, and the U.S. Senate has voted to permit people to bring drugs into the country from overseas. It happened with the provision that the drug-order pharmacies are checked out, and most turned out to be fine. Check out some of the approved pharmacies
here. Ironically, its the drugs in the U.S. that have turned out to be counterfeit or possibly tainted. Thats because we are the only market in the world where drug prices are not controlled. Drug makers charge whatever they want, in part, to subsidize the cost of medicine for people in other countries. Clark would like a free market to exist all over the world. That way, there would be pricing pressure to lower prices here and increase prices overseas.
