Round 12: Diebold Vs Pfizer


Pfizer hires stunt doubles to row for their not-a-physician (former) pitchman Dr. Robert Jarvik and this severely upsets Congress. They also don’t want you to use cheaper generics. And produce potentially misleading and sketchy commercials about Celebrex. And they also make car sick medicine for dogs.

Diebold makes crappy voting machines that your grandmother could tamper with.

    Wow, this is a clash of the mega-evils worthy of a later round. Diebold by a nose. Or should I say, by a few conveniently changed votes, wink wink.

    I don’t blame Diebold as much as I blame the idiots who bought machines with closed source code. “Stolen election” or not, there were still people who actually DID vote for him!! Besides which people who don’t vote shouldn’t complain.

    Pfizer, on the other hand, probably has more say in our government, health care, and economy than W. The rest of our government allows this, and gave W the right to pull the trigger in the first place.
