Stacy Summary: Just as the BP Gulf of Mexico oil spill is a typical day in the Niger Delta where the likes of Chevron and Shell spill with impunity, this story of Novo Nordisk pulling insulin from Greece is a story similar to what has happened to other, mostly developing, nations that have had austerity forced upon them. I guess this is part of the convergence that globalization demands . . . ?

bollocks to people, only money matters
Well people ,i have to teel that one more Danish company did it,Leo Pharma
did the same,so 2 Danish crying girls wont help!And i looks like they are going to do the same i Spain,it hard to be rich,maybe it hurt the bonuses they pay!
Shame on them!
Again,its not the Danes,but ,multinationals!
From this day hense forth,dont forget them,The Novo Nordisk and Leo Pharma,and dont forget Mærsk!
Capitaists: making a good case for national healthcare! Wake up DC. Austerity headed your way.
You know Stacy H,this konvergens,is a big joke,none of the European contrys comply to this,actually,by the Lisboa treaty,they all should leave the Eurozone,meening the end of this monster they build!
Multinationals are runned by godamn Nazis. And the USA is their hitmen.
By the way Mish has a nice article about health insurance cost going up 76% for small businesses in the USA. I specify Small Businesses not the godamn Nazis multinationals. There is a difference. The multinational like Apple goes to China.The small bussiness is shafted. Highly improbable that he can moce to China to profit from the chineese meat. USA Nazis from Apple Computer.
Whats the fuss?? If a country can just order a cut in an agreed price then why should the company be forced to accept it? There are dozens of other suppliers, including generic ones which will be more than happy to supply an alternative to Novo. You either believe in a free market or you do not.
Before y’all go running around in a rampage,
note that Novo Nordisk said they would give GLUCAGEN free of charge…

I know… it’s so Draconian, isn’t it…
OT, but Max & Stacy should consider interviewing Tom O’Brien, He has a firm theory about the disintegration of money leading to deflation and the ramifications. He was interviewed on CNBC recently -
http://www.tfnn.com/cnbc4.php
His has a great “street smart” way of looking at things, and his observations should not be ignored.
How that for helping entrepreneurship and job creation in the USA ? Obama is one fine piece of shit indeed. Yeah I reserve the right of saying because I am self employed and a entrepreneur and damn ! I sympathise with poor USA small business owners. Fuckin Democrat scum.

This is the furthest thing from Capitalism (you might call it corrupted capitalism, certainly not ‘free market’ Capitalism), try Fascism.
@stacy my first job – many years ago – I worked in the Niger Delta on oil exploration, and saw many many oil spillages stretching tens of miles – it was normal – I flew over on helicopters

Business Ethics and Social Responsibility can be reconnected only if metaphysics (the principles of reality) are allowed back into the game. We cannot judge too early if the causality has not been analyzed yet.
I hope that austerity measures will last at least 30 yr and that all EU countries

Diabetes T2 is the result of following wrong dietary advice. Even T1 can mostly be handled without extra insulin.
In short the problem is caused by the common carbohydrate rich diet. Reduce carbohydrate intake and you don’t need insulin to get the blood sugar down. It’s so amazingly simple that regular doctors can’t grasp the concept. Or they just cash in on the “disease”, as they so often do. First you get ill by following false advice, then they “treat” you with adverse methods that will cause more problems in the long run.
Here’s just one of the many available sources on that topic:
http://www.second-opinions.co.uk/diabetes.html
This is how amateurish the reporting is at the BBC:
By Malcolm Brabant BBC
News, Athens
“The world’s leading supplier of the anti-diabetes drug insulin is withdrawing a state-of-the-art medication from Greece. ”
State of the art?
Hey Malcolm you moron… insulin is a HORMONE. It is unpatented and available over the counter with out a prescription.
It is not a patented drug, state of the art or otherwise.
This is “professional” reporting. Where does the corporate whore “news” media get these idiots? Do they ever fact check anything?
And the corporate whores call internet bloggers unreliable…
Tutor… you don’t know your ass about Type 1 diabetes.
“Diabetes T2 is the result of following wrong dietary advice. Even T1 can mostly be handled without extra insulin.”
Type 1 the pancreas produces very little insulin or fails to produce insulin at all. Without a baseline amount of insulin CO2 will build up in your blood stream.
Without insulin you will be dead in 24 hours, carbohydrates or no carbohydrates. So to Type 1 diabetics… insulin and a syringe are life and death.
“I still do not understand why those who need some large amounts of gold do not stand for delivery and get it out of the Comex. They would end the gold suppression scheme in a week’s time and allow the metal to move to a natural level of equilibrium since the gold shorts could not deliver the gold at current prices.”
I still don’t understand either? A answer could be that the part of the buyers are insiders too and also part of the “let’s keep it a secret” gold manipulation Kabal.

For the record… the BBC article is poorly written…
Novo Nordisk will not discount their insulin products bundled with their fancy hypo-pen. They will be discounting their insulin products in traditional, syringe-ready vials. The free Glucagen is not actually an insulin product, but a product used for compensating insulin overdose and other emergency situations of hypoglycemic shock.

Jobless Claims Dip, But Real Employment Gains Appear Stalled http://www.dailyfinance.com/story/jobless-claims-dip/19493945/
Regarding type 1 diabetes. Type 1 diabates is chronic diabetes where you permanently have zero insulin produced in your body. Anybody saying that you can survive this by diet is full of crap. If you don’t get insulin you will DIE! Any other discussion about this is futile.
Regarding “state-of-the-art” insulin. There are different types of insulin. Some have a direct effect on the bloodsugar, some start to work after 30 minutes and some work over a longer time. All of these are high-tech insulin types, eventhough you may imagine that insulin is just insulin, if you dont know anything about the disease then I suggest you stop writing nonsense.
Off Topic: I see by reading a little blurb off to the side here that Ben Stein, a known asshole, says he is partly responsible for BP oil disaster. Fantastic! Hang the no good prick. ‘Bout time we got rid of that shrieking little dickhead.
