Tucker Carlson admitted that his views on the birth control pill were “radically changing” during a lengthy video interviewwith health activist Dr. Casey Means, who had said that “the pill” was the first medication “ever” that people “took for more than a couple weeks that didn’t cure the issue right away.”
In other words, “the pill” was the first product of the pharmaceutical industry that turned a segment of the American population into long-term customers, redirecting the vast majority of the profit-hungry industry’s focus away from cures and toward “management” of conditions, a far more profitable pursuit for Big Pharma.
