I said big pharmaceutical asks for subsidies, hence the word big meaning a lot of money, and you said they ask but don't receive... so I posted you an article.
If you want me to find articles of corruption through lobbyists I will, however this article seriously proved you were wrong.
Politicians live it up and have the lobbyists pay - CNN.com
To clarify I said anyone can ask, there is nothing wrong with asking nor is there a law against asking. But that does not mean everyone gets what they ask for. If your saying pharm asks for subsidies and they are approved by congress, then I suspect what they are asking for is beneficial for the government to issue such subsidies. I mean this goes on all day long. Example government will give an accelerated depreciation rate on equipment etc. for a period of time thus that accelerated depreciation rate encourages purchasing of new equipment. This is a subsidy to business.
I still have no idea what point you are trying to make.
