Bush. The countries focus were u. S. Governmentnt dollars funded investment in developing countries. It was an idea that was ahead of its time, and there were several dozen of these Enterprise Funds that were launched.

To put forward, so, i commend the u. S. Senate proappropriatio committee providing some assistance in that regard. I want to just invite david to ask, to address whether the, whether we can wait another 30 or 40 or 50 years to take action and expect not to have consequences. Thank you for the question.

Navigate . Well talk about all of that. Joining me, paul howard, scholar at man hat the hat tan institute. This is exposing a dirty little secret in the medical industry. Tell us about that secret. This is a open secret because in order to tell doctors about new products they have to get in to see them. Only time they can see the doctor is during lunch when they dont have patients. They buy them pizza and give them samples. Gerri were not talking about pizza here, right. Were talking about everything. Some doctors opinion leaders in the industry, they are paid consulting fees to talk about new products, go on lectures to do those kind of things. They get a lot of payments for that.
