I'm sure the medical industry in the US is getting further corrupted by the stablisment, this is a good reminder of how much the pharmaceutical companies are willing to manipulate people for better profits.

The GlaxoSmithKline group was fined with $3bn after bribing doctors into encouraging the prescription of the wrong drugs in order to increase their own benefit. Including antidepressants for children.

It's a premium whiskey and expensive so I will think of you while I drink some Russian Standard Vodka. Cheers Comrade. 🥶
