Monsatan–I mean Monsanto

The future of food

You can go to www.thefutureoffood.com and buy the movie or watch the above which comes in 7 clips of between 6 and 10 minutes a piece.

I felt sick to my stomach watching it–fear and the bad taste evil leaves.

“Monsanto should not have to vouchsafe the safety of biotech food, our interest is in selling as much of it as possible. Assuring it’s safety is the FDA’s job.” Phil Angell, Director of Corporate Communication, Monsanto. New York Times, Oct 25, 1998

Are you out of your #@!* mind?

First of all, the FDA does not have the capacity to monitor every product sold in this country. Second of all, what about the ethics? If you sell as much as possible and then people die, do you really wash your hands of it?? Yes, because you don’t believe in God or hell and your parents must not have loved you. Or they did love you but you ran into the devil one night and made a deal. You love money and you will drown in it.

We all want money. (Although some of us want it so we can give it away.) But to get it at the expense of another human being is one of the most evil things I can think of.

Corporations stole from us the land/people connection. Famines used to happen on a local and national scale. Genetically modified foods are resistant to blight so are supposed to prevent famine, but a famine will come, nonetheless. The suicide gene will contaminate other crops and there’ll be famine. Remember Ireland, the potato blight? They only had one kind of potato . . . . we used to have like 7,000 kinds of apples in this country and thousands of kinds of potatoes, corn, etc. Now we have like four kinds of potatoes. But maybe by then we’ll all be dead from suppressed immune systems, allergies to food, etc. Like the dinosaurs. Or X-men come true; we’ll all be mutants. (In the movie you sympathize with the mutants but who really wants it to happen in real life? Because we wouldn’t have cool mutations like flying, it would be like warts and goiters. And stomach fissures.)

NewDeal vs business

These are all thoughts I had while watching this video.  I couldn’t get the last two parts to work and it’s been awhile since I watched the first two but I’m finally getting around to posting this.

. . . Brainwashing as it were, can be done by both sides (government/business and individual naturalists or whatever)  so . . . never believe anything . . . . . no, just don’t be like I am most of the time and assume that the opposite of something wrong must be 100% right.

David Graham takes on the FDA

You may not watch the whole hour and a half but at least skip around in it so you hit some points and DEFINITELY watch the last two minutes for the animated video (no it’s not the mercola allopathville or whatever).

How Big Pharma works

Former Eli Lilly drug rep speaks out 

Excerpts:

Pharmaceutical sales reps are trained in tactics that are on par with some of the most potent brainwashing techniques used throughout the world, according to an in-depth report co-written by former Eli Lilly drug rep Shahram Ahari, and Adriane Fugh-Berman, associate professor of physiology and biophysics at Georgetown University Medical Center in Washington, DC.

Last weekend I saw a woman who used to work for me 13 years ago.  She wound up going to a four year naturopathic college, but prior to going to ND school she worked as a drug rep.  I heard firsthand, detailed stories of the corrupt and deceitful practices they use.  I am hoping I can convince her to write an article that goes into more details.

Doctors usually believe they are immune to persuasion tactics, and drug reps know just how important it is to maintain that illusion.

It turns out that doctors are mostly unaware of just how extensive and detailed the drug companies’ profiling of them is. Not only are reps trained to assess their personality, practice style, and medical preferences, they’re also instructed to sniff out personal information, like the names of family members, birthdays, and family interests — as well as the physician’s professional interests and recreational pursuits.

_____________________________________________________________

I shouldn’t have to say this but here it is:  obviously there are some doctors that stand up to this, that are more aware and more resistant and more into promoting things like diet and exercise.  But if 80-90% of doctors fall into this category people need to know since it probably includes the doctor they go to.

I’m starting to think profit=evil but then there’s always 7th Generation . . .
