And a fairly new one, at that.

And I agree with you here, 100%. I am happy this is a regulated industry. It's interesting how some people want less government, but no one is suggesting the FDA be defunded.
What I find interesting is how Americans will put up with side-effects of medication which is sometimes worse than the ailment they are treating. I don't see that in Japan.
