Chapter 1: The Rise of the Drug Companies
The drug companies have come a long way since their humble beginnings in the 19th century. Today, they are multi-billion dollar corporations that dominate the healthcare industry.

As the drug companies grew in power, they also became more aggressive in their marketing practices. They began to spend billions of dollars on advertising, and they hired armies of sales representatives to promote their products.
The drug companies also began to use deceptive tactics to sell their products. They exaggerated the benefits of their drugs and downplayed the risks.
