This is the Tom Hartman program.

I want to talk about Big Pharma for a minute here.

I grew up in Michigan near the Canadian border, lived in Vermont for 10 years,

near the Canadian border two hours away.

And I don't recall any stories about Canadians dropping dead all over the place because the drug supply was contaminated.

But we are seeing this now here in the United States.

There's a compound called N-D-M-A.

It is one of the ingredients of rocket fuel.

The massive contamination of N-D-M-A was discovered west of Los Angeles in an area where they were actually manufacturing rockets.

It gets into the water supply.

The highly missable is the word.

It means super soluble.

You put a couple of drops of it into an aquifer, like miles and miles of underground water.
