    I like teh Sackler Cartel signs - and our courts need to adopt the same approach and charge everyone of them under a RICO statute. Some be bop in Queens can get years in prison for selling a few Oxycontin Pills, but the Sackler Cartel gets immunity and keeps the cash?

      i like medhi, but your argument is lame. free speech ends at your employer's door in america, whereupon you enter a dictatorship in which whatever the owner says, you do, period, and your 'free speech' option is to quit*.
      when i was a young dallas factory worker, the owner's big burly country mistress was hired as our new 'boss lady', and the first day she called everyone together to tell us, among other things, that our job security was to not do anything to make her "put my size 9 up your azz and boot you out the door".
