The Supreme Court on Thursday ruled that makers of generic drugs cannot be sued for failing to warn consumers of the possible side effects of their products if they copy the exact warnings on the brand-name equivalents of the medicines. »

Not as bad as Citizens United vs Federal Election Commission (2010). But this recent decision goes to prove how much of an idiot Justice Thomas is. How the hell did he get on the bench?

The majority opinion acknowledged that the decision dealt an “unfortunate hand” that “makes little sense” to those who were harmed by generic drugs and are unable to sue the drug makers.

Really makes you feel warm and cuddly inside when the Supreme Court acknowledges their ruling that benefits generic drug manufacturers and screws the harmed consumer “makes little sense.”

destined to become one of the many cases that the SC will consider an “embarrassment to the Court” in 50 yrs.
