The Upside Of Getting Canned
Free Viagra! So in the event a layoff you still have the ability to get off.
Pfizer Inc. says it will provide 70 of its most widely prescribed prescription drugs -- including Lipitor and Viagra -- for free to people who have lost their jobs and health insurance.
The world's biggest drugmaker said Thursday it will give away the medicines for up to a year to Americans who lost jobs since Jan. 1 and have been on the Pfizer drug for three months or more.
The announcement comes amid massive job losses caused by the recession and a campaign in Washington to rein in health care costs and extend coverage. The move could earn Pfizer some goodwill in that debate after long being a target of critics of drug industry prices and sales practices.
In light of this generosity from the big-hearted people at Pfizer, are there any other companies we should lobby for free shit? Obviously there are a few that would go hand in hand with the love drugs.
