Well, while I’d be happy to get rid of NSA and co. I’d not be happy to lose FDA. The world would be quite worse without it
The FDA? You mean the poster child for regulatory capture? From the NPR A Look At How The Revolving Door Spins From FDA To Industry. From Cambridge University Corrosive Capture? The Dueling Forces of Autonomy and Industry Influence in FDA Pharmaceutical Regulation
You’re bringing up a very specific problem with the FDA that can be easily fixed with the same sort of legislation that prevents congressmen from becoming lobbyists for a number of years and talking about it like it’s an existential issue. It’s not.
The FDA does incredibly important work preventing disease outbreaks and unsanitary food for all Americans. Perhaps you yourself are a snakeoil salesman that hates how the FDA prevents you from selling bullshit like it’s real medicine?
Not only that but the FDA has the most strict ethics body of any Federal agency. If there’s even a hint of something unethical going on with a clinical trial the whole thing is basically cancelled. Everything must follow not only the letter of the law but the spirit as well.
There’s plenty of Federal agencies that have weak oversight (e.g. ATF, Secret Service) but the FDA isn’t one of them.
Lol, just fucking lmao. “Let’s add even more regulation to fix the issue caused, in large part, by regulation.”
Oh, you mean like the snakeoil salesmen that regulatory captured the FDA?
Laughs in the literal thousands of “Have you taken X medication, if so you may be entitled to compensation” commercials.
