they prevent lifesaving drugs, or take many years to approve lifesaving drugs, in which time people die.
Replying to
so we should just have no approval process at all and everyone can just sell whatever "drug" with no oversight ? people were literally eating horse dewormer last year against covid, what do you think wouldve happened if every conservative couldve just released their own "drug" ?

Versus a completely unregulated food and drug industry? They need reform, not deletion.

How many life-ending drugs and food are they keeping back? That aftermarket vape juice stuff that killed people would have been much more abundant in an unregulated market.

They also prevent lethal drugs from hitting the market. I acknowledge that the FDA errors on the side of caution, but I argue that no FDA is worse

It's literally the opposite. The drug companies have way too much influence in what gets approved and are responsible for much of the FDA funding. There's a long list of drugs that got approved then killed people until they had to be pulled.

So to save thousands of people dying, we should skip the approval process of drugs and put millions of people at risk who take the drugs?
