Health Care Reform Bill Sucks

The bill passed by congress is fairly useless.  There is really only one kind of health care reform that should have been passed and that is UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE!   We need to put the concepts of “health” and “care” back into the equation.  Right now all we got is very minor insurance company reform.

1.  Insurance companies are only in it for profit.  They just want you to pay into the system and then deny you coverage when you actually try to use your insurance.

2.  No current system actually respects or rewards staying healthy.  If they did, then you’d be able to deduct vitamins and supplements as the cost of staying healthy from your taxes or insurance companies would pay for these items.

3.  Control the population and you will control costs.

4.  Illegal immigrants should be treated as necessary but a bill for the cost of the service should be sent to the originating country.  Ideally, anyone in the country illegally should be instantly deported and cared for in their homeland.  The United States should not have to pay for the entire world and anyone who does not see that is deeply delusional.

5.  Our government needs to step up to the plate, so to speak, and stop rewarding companies that make garbage food products with tax breaks and contracts.  If we can have mega companies making trash then we can have these same companies producing quality and truly organic foods for the masses.

6.  Individuals need to wake up and start making healthier choices.  They would be helped in this regard if the big food companies didn’t think it was okay to feed us low-nutrient, high-fat, high-sugar, pesticide/hormone/antibiotic-laden CRAP.

7.  The government is downright ignorant when it comes to pasteurization of dairy products.  RAW MILK is very safe and highly nutritious and boosts immunity.  RAW nuts should be allowed to be just that — RAW, not pasteurized which destroys nutrients.  Our government is a knee-jerk organization without any common sense whatsoever.  Any well educated complementary/alternative medicine practitioner knows the truth about these quality foods.

Healthcare Reform Scam

On June 15th, 2009, President Obama addressed the American Medical Association to garner their support for his health care reform agenda. At one point he was actually booed by this organization that allegedly embraces the Hippocratic Oath (‘first, do no harm’). This is the same organization that bows to the pharmaceutical industry and that tells our nation’s doctors (many of whom are too lazy to research new protocols, anyway) that they absolutely may not reveal alternative medical approaches to healing illnesses and disease.

The AMA was devised as a means to protect the interests of doctors not patients. We already know that the Food and Drug Administration really exists to protect business interests. It too bows to the pharmaceutical industry. Just recently I learned that the FDA plans to ban the natural vitamin B6 nutrient pyridoxamine (which by the way, is found in many foods) not because it’s unsafe, but because a major pharmaceutical company wants to patent it, thereby making it only available as a prescription drug! The FDA has definitively placed the interests of big business over the ability of Americans to purchase a safe and natural supplement.

High on Obama’s list of ways to achieve reform was preventive care. IS HE KIDDING?

The AMA won’t let its members give important nutrition-based, anti-aging or complementary care information to patients. The American Dental Association still forces its members to hide the dangers of mercury and push poisonous fluoride into people’s mouths and down their throats. The FDA is a shill for the pharmaceutical industry and big business in general.

All you have to do is look around at all the non-organic, chemical and pesticide-ridden crap that the FDA says is okay to sell to the public (from the food that’s sold to the cleaners we tend to use to the cosmetics and personal care items we might wear and use) .

The Environmental Protection Agency allows businesses to poison and otherwise harm people, animals and the environment on a daily basis.

You want PREVENTIVE CARE, Mr. President? I suggest that America starts doing business differently and embraces a healthful lifestyle on all fronts. Ban the FDA and all the other pseudo-protective agencies that government has coughed up. We’d do better without them.

U.S Healthcare, Wellness, Individual Freedoms

If you were to read the March 2009 issue of Life Extension Magazine, published by Life Extension Foundation (lef.org), you would find a fascinating editorial that will knock your socks off when it comes to the inefficiency/ineffectiveness of the FDA and downright corruption perpetrated by the pharmaceutical companies against everyone. What I find astounding and particularly galling is how the U.S. government has been complicit in it all. Greed and ignorance is how Congress operates, it would seem, otherwise how else would you explain Congress actually allowing the pharmaceutical industry to write policy (such as dictating the exorbitant cost of prescription drug purchases that the government’s Medicare program must pay)?

To fix our healthcare system:
1. Get rid of the FDA as it exists today – put alternative medicine specialists in charge and under no circumstances allow the usual special interests groups (pharmaceutical industry lobbyists) anywhere near it.

2. No direct to consumer advertising by pharmaceutical companies. No pharmaceutical company monopolies.

3. No government censorship when it comes to alternative medicine approaches. No jailing people to stop the flow of valuable information. I strongly recommend you view the information at Antiaging Systems and I hope that someone has not hacked that system to destroy the information available there.

4. Stop all attacks against the vitamin/supplement/alternative health industry and when research about a supplement is presented (like the recent Vitamin E scare) make sure it is done by reputable 3rd parties using the correct “natural” supplement that is supported by the vitamin/supplement industry and not some garbage synthetic at reduced dosage (which is precisely what occurred).

5. Revamp the American Medical Association and American Dental Association. They are both stakeholders in the pharmaceutical industry.

6. Cancer research and therapies: The Germans have an effective alternative non-invasive therapy involving heating the body. Why don’t we? Why has virtually no one in the United States even heard of it, what about other effective therapies? Because the AMA won’t allow anything that doesn’t make them a ton of money through invasive, non-effective “treatment” protocols that give them and their doctors kickbacks from useless chemotherapy.

7. Health Insurance: Universal care for all legal U.S. citizens. Stop the unfair overpricing by the industry. Make sure wellness programs are covered and the use of vitamins/supplements. Get rid of gender inequality. Promote funding of family planning/birth control instead of Viagra.

8.  Read this fascinating article about Monsanto controlling our food supply and how the FDA and congress has let a giant corporation destroy your health along with farmers’ livelihoods.
