TRENTON, N.J. -- Pfizer Inc. is unveiling a new program today that will let people who have lost their jobs and health insurance keep taking some widely prescribed Pfizer medications -- including Lipitor and Viagra -- for free for up to a year.

The world's biggest drugmaker will provide more than 70 of its prescription drugs at no cost to unemployed, uninsured Americans, regardless of their prior income, who lost jobs since Jan. 1 and have been on the Pfizer drug for three months or more.

Maybe they feel this will give unemployed people something to do with all their new free time?

Yeah, but that still leaves them with 23 hours and 45 minutes in the day.

Methinks those who lost their jobs should be focusing on finding a new job, starting a new career, etc. instead of worrying about their sex life.

Necessity is the Mother of Invention and When one door closes, another one opens -- take that energy and focus it on another outlet, one that may make you the next millionaire or help the worl's problems.
