From David Holcberg writing for the Ayn Rand Institute:



The Bush administration’s decision to expedite FDA approval for AIDS-related drugs–from years to weeks–shows two things. One, the FDA’s approval process is dictated largely by politics, not science. Two, the administration knows that the FDA unnecessarily delays the marketing of drugs to people who need them.


The best way to make sure drugs are safe and readily available is not to make the FDA more efficient, but to make the FDA irrelevant. Let doctors and patients–not government officials–decide what’s the best treatment. That’s the American way.
