At the very least, he should come out publicly and state that he's placed his stock portfolio in a blind trust with instructions that any dividends remaining from the drug companies will be donated to the widows and orphans fund for Texas firefighters, law enforcement, etc. 3. the idea that a farmer can dictate to the medical profession what is best for them is absolutely unacceptable.is best for them is absolutely who did he consult for guidance....who did he consult for guidance... group in Texas did he consult?? ck: That's been happening for a long time. Which is worse, a farmer (who presumably at least has a passing familiarity with having to spend money on live stock for vet bills) to dictate medical care or some bean counter 6 states away working for an insurance company to do so? this is a good idea but how it came about stinks ht also agreed. ck S.
