They could if they really wanted to . We have a space craft on Mars.

Don't just blame the drug companies.The blame also has to fall on our sue crazy society.Developing a new drug costs millions of dollars and a chance of bankruptcy should anything go wrong.We shouldn't wonder why new drugs are slow to come on lineI'm thankfull that we have the drugs we have now.I sure wouldn't be typing without sinemet.I also would like to add that in a failed mars mission NASA doesnt get sued,and understanding our brain is far more complex then using gravity to get to mars.It is our Brain that figured out how to get to mars,and it will at some point figure out how to control this nasty disease.10+ yrs ,and hoping for a cure for all.No criticism meant or intended.Scotch
