361: The Fact of the Bladder

Pharmaceutical Marketing and Texas School Medication

The discussion shifts to the pervasive influence of pharmaceutical companies in American life, specifically the screening of children for high cholesterol in schools. The hosts criticize the Texas school system for allegedly pressuring parents to put children on Ritalin for behavioral issues. They also discuss the legal immunity granted to drug companies for mandatory vaccines and the rise of homeschooling as a response.
