into a possible connection between pharmaceutical money paid to doctors five industry and prescription numbers and some drugs we were able to see that like seventeen out of the top twenty prescribers of a certain heart drug were also getting money from the company and that s that s a pretty that s a pretty important information and what a patient would say go back to their doctor and say i d like to know this drug is only supposed to be for patients with a really severe heart ailment why am i getting it does your payment by the drug company have anything to do. in the us patients have the right to know whether their doctor has ties to pharmaceutical money that may present a conflict of interest. back in germany where drug companies do not have to report to some state pay doctors to help market their products but there are growing calls for more transparency in the pharmaceutical industry.
convince voters to vote against me. i m from new york. one of the highest tax states in the country. i hear often new york erosion are going down to florida because of the tax system there. you have said that you are willing to increase corporate taxes to pay for some of your programs. how do voters from florida know you re not going to take this to a personal income tax or even further increase than what you ve already said the corporate tax rate? yeah. let me be clear. it s a good question. first of all, i oppose an income tax. we don t have a state income tax. the governor of state of florida couldn t impose an income tax on the people of the state of florida because the state constitution prohibits it. on the corporate tax rate, 97% of businesses in my state pay no corporate taxes. 3% of companies in the state of
