Wyeth deal could mean NJ drug industry job cuts (Forbes)

(This BAGnewsNotes slideshow — featuring the images of Getty photographer Mario Tama — looks at CEOs, especially as they come under new scrutiny from the administration and the press. The images were captured at a press conference last week featuring Pfizer CEO Jeffrey B. Kindler and Bernard Poussot, CEO of Wyeth. Pfizer — maker of Lipitor and Viagra — plans to acquire Wyeth for $68 billion creating the world’s largest biopharmaceutical company.)

    can we stop subsidizing these smug b******* yet?

    As someone who’s about to be economically devastated on a personal level by this sh*t (spouse employed – for now – by Wyeth), I can only hope and pray that Obama’s DOJ, FTC and even the FDA will kill this unholy alliance dead in its tracks.
    Forget the happy ex-McDonald’s lawyer(!) CEO-speak: We’re looking down the barrel of perhaps 30,000 to 40,000 people (scientists, secretaries, sales people, etc.) losing their jobs, with pretty much no other means of making a living in this economy.

    Great stuff, as usual. Just wish it was embeddable so we could use it on Weekly Leader, with proper attribution and linkage of course.
    Thanks.
