Let me try to make things simple enough for you to understand. Genentech allows $125 per dinner meal for employees when out of town on Business. While at meetings, Genentech usually has group functions.
What I am saying is that the $125 per DINNER is excessive. The money spent on Massages, golf, Harley rides, etc while at the NSM in Vegas is also excessive. The money to pay for these activities comes from sales of drugs that are way overpriced. Do you know how pricing is determined at Genentech? I do. It is what can we charge instead of what is a fair ROI. Don't give me that garbage of it costs $1 billion to bring a new drug out either. How much has Avastin sold since launch? Has the cost of the research been met yet? Name one drug from Genentech that has come down in price. hGH from Genentech costs a fraction to manufacture today compared to 1985. Yet all that has happened is that the price has gone UP!
