Hancock (all heart campaign)


Last night I watched Hancock, Yes I enjoyed it. But around all the CGI special effects was a message one that I hope takes hold of you and the world. "THE ALL HEART CAMPAIGN" imagine if this became a reality, think about it. For sure GSK or other big drug companies could actually do this and it would not dent their company, FREE medicine, FREE medicine, FREE treatment, in the places that really need it. They made profits of 7.8 Billion in 2007. While some poor countries go without vital medicines in the long run this shortsighted vision will effect the world on a global scale.
