Drug Companies "Hiding" Cures

So I've heard from more than one intelligent person that drug companies have supposedly been hiding cures from us. Oh, and the scientists are being blackmailed somehow into keeping this conspiracy hidden.. Loo, morons, this idea is from an INFOMERCIAL. God, what is wrong with people? There are way more important things to worry about. Like real, actual issues. I've checked out the facts, the guy is so full of crap it's not even funny. He claims that the ten drug companies in the Fortune 500 "make more than the other 490 combined." Uhhh, that's just plain a lie. It's stupid. GM's spent over a billion dollars on their hydrogen prototype, it's drivable right now. The drug companies pour bilIion into disease research, you think they're just burning that money in the incinerator in order to cover up their secret? I have a close family member who works in disease research, and I'm pretty sure his life isn't a sham. Why did they cure smallpox? Polio? Chicken pox? My problem with this whole idea is that it skews the real problems of the pharmaceutecal industry, like the fact that they hand out psychological medications like candy without knowing the long term ramifications. The fact that much of the wonderful medications they make that work aren't being distributed to everyone who needs them. This whole conspiracy distracts from those very real, provable, big problems with the industry.
