Man...
The generic drug industry tired of waiting for Congress to fully finance the F.D.A.’s generic drug office and this year proposed providing the agency with $299 million in annual fees (http://www.nytimes.com/2011/08/13/science/13drug.html?pagewanted=all) to finance the review process.

Take the money..no strings attached..get it done.
