Off Topic: The silver lining of pharmaceuticals in water
Posted by elusivejustice on March 10, 2008
George W. Bush goal of cutting $15 billion from Medicaid expenditures may be easier than he imaginied. Apparently medications are increasingly being found in our drinking water . These are apparently chemicals that pass unused through the humans taking the medications. Water companies are claiming the pharmaceuticals are in such low levels that there is no impact on humans. So, we just need to filter the water a little less and let that water build up the drugs to a clinical level. It’ll be good for what ails ya’. Not only will there be fewer prescriptions covered by Medicaid, we will be recyclying - everybody wins!
