“In 1789 the flаg оf the Republic wаved оver 4,000,000 sоuls in thirteen stаtes, and their savage territory which stretched to the Mississippi, to Canada, to the Floridas. The timid minds of that day said that no new territory was needed; and, for the hour, they were right. But [Thomas] Jefferson, through whose intellect the centuries marched; Jefferson, who dreamed of Cuba as an American state; Jefferson, the first Imperialist of the Republic—Jefferson acquired that imperial territory which swept from the Mississippi to the mountains, from Texas to the British possessions, and the march of the flag began! . . . Jefferson, strict constructionist of constitutional power though he was, obeyed the Anglo-Saxon impulse within him. . . . And now obeying the same voice that Jefferson heard and obeyed, that [Andrew] Jackson heard and obeyed, that [James] Monroe heard and obeyed, that [William] Seward heard and obeyed, that [Ulysses] Grant heard and obeyed, that [Benjamin] Harrison heard and obeyed, our President today plants the flag over the islands of the seas, outposts of commerce, citadels of national security, and the march of the flag goes on!” Albert J. Beveridge, candidate for United States Senate, “The March of the Flag” speech, 1898 Based on the excerpt, Beveridge would have most likely opposed which of the following?

(B) Investigаtiоns As previоusly disclоsed, in November 2014, the Compаny wаs advised by the staff of the SEC that it was commencing an informal inquiry concerning Vioxx. On January 28, 2015, the Company announced that it received notice that the SEC issued a formal notice of investigation. Also, the Company has received subpoenas from the U.S. Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) requesting information related to the Company’s research, marketing and selling activities with respect to Vioxx in a federal health care investigation under criminal statutes. In addition, as previously disclosed, investigations are being conducted by local authorities in certain cities in Europe in order to determine whether any criminal charges should be brought concerning Vioxx. The Company is cooperating with these governmental entities in their respective investigations (the “Vioxx Investigations”). The Company cannot predict the outcome of these inquiries; however, they could result in potential civil and/or criminal dispositions. As previously disclosed, the Company has received a number of Civil Investigative Demands (“CID”) from a group of Attorneys General from 31 states and the District of Columbia who are investigating whether the Company violated state consumer protection laws when marketing Vioxx. The Company is cooperating with the Attorneys General in responding to the CIDs. In addition, the Company received a subpoena in September 2016 from the State of California Attorney General seeking documents and information related to the placement of Vioxx on California’s Medi-Cal formulary. The Company is cooperating with the Attorney General in responding to the subpoena. (C) Reserves The Company currently anticipates that a number of Vioxx Product Liability Lawsuits will be tried throughout 2017. A trial in the Oregon securities case is scheduled for 2017, but the Company cannot predict whether this trial will proceed on schedule or the timing of any of the other Vioxx Shareholder Lawsuit trials. The Company believes that it has meritorious defenses to the Vioxx Lawsuits and will vigorously defend against them. In view of the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of litigation, particularly where there are many claimants and the claimants seek indeterminate damages, the Company is unable to predict the outcome of these matters, and at this time cannot reasonably estimate the possible loss or range of loss with respect to the Vioxx Lawsuits. The Company has not established any reserves for any potential liability relating to the Vioxx Lawsuits or the Vioxx Investigations, including for those cases in which verdicts or judgments have been entered against the Company, and are now in post-verdict proceedings or on appeal. In each of those cases the Company believes it has strong points to raise on appeal and therefore that unfavorable outcomes in such cases are not probable. Unfavorable outcomes in the Vioxx Litigation (as defined below) could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, liquidity and results of operations. Required: Given the disclosures about the investigations instigated by the SEC and the DOJ, how do you think investors would respond to these disclosures about the investigations and reserves (be specific) .
