Pharmacies can be just as corrupted as our government.

any big corporation that is out to make oodles of money will eventually get corrupted or have a run with the law somehow. i don't recall in recent memories of a super giant company existing for the good for their costumers, if ever.

Oh no, that's impossible. Google is such an honest and upstanding company. There's no way they could be involved in something like this.

Deserves it for being an evil corporation performing illegal activities itself.

Now I understand exactly why Google allows all that "Crap" to end up in GMAIL SPAM bin, rather than actually blocking and deleting the vile filth.

I just hope, some else files a lawsuit for taking money from illegitimate "Replica Watches", "Genuine College Degrees" and "Canadian Pharmacies"
