Yeah that "unlike other industries" is a load of crock. Nobody goes after car manufacturers for all those deaths either unless there's an actual flaw in the car itself that caused it.
Hell we barely go after the pharmaceutical industry and they KNOWINGLY cause harm when they downplay all the risks that they do.
+1 for the pharmaceutical industry. Those motherfuckers are actively causing harm. They pay doctors to over prescribe, which leads to addiction, which leads to more pharmaceutical sales. They are basically with the tobacco industry
