Pharmaceutical Companies Fund 75% of Drug Research, Spend $8 Billion Annually on Advertising

Brigham Buhler exposes pharmaceutical industry influence on FDA and how Big Pharma's $8 billion ad spend dwarfs FDA budget.

“When it comes to drugs alone, 75% of the drug funding comes from the pharmaceutical companies themselves… and with Big Pharma spending over 8 billion dollars a year advertising, that's more than the entire sum of the FDA's budget.”

Buhler argues Americans want real solutions, not necessarily quick fixes, contrary to some senators' beliefs.
