United 93 Review / Vaccine Industry Signs Own Law

Douglas Herman posted a market anarchist review of that propaganda movie, United 93, on Strike the Root.

News from Think Progress : "Frist and Hastert Let Vaccine Industry Write Its Own Multi-Billion Dollar Giveaway".

Last December, Senate Majority Leader Bill First (R-TN) and House Speaker Dennis Hastert inserted a provision in the Defense Appropriations bill that granted vaccine manufactures near-total immunity for injuries or deaths (even in cases of “gross negligence”) caused by their drugs during a viral pandemic, such as an outbreak of the avian flu. The legislation was “worth billions of dollars” to a small group of drug makers.

A new report from Public Citizen reveals that vaccine-industry lobbyists essentially wrote the provision themselves.
