Corporate state fascism has an appreciable base in terms of the pharmaceutical industry. Gardasil is the vaccine that purportedly protects against two strains of HPV. Discerning people remember the push to make Gardasil vaccinations mandatory. The movement died because Americans rebelled after waking up to the obvious – it was a deceitful hustle on the part of Big Pharma [...]

Here’s my latest article for the Clare Boothe Luce Policy Institute.

I assume people saw Jimmy Carter’s remarks calling the anti-Obamacare demonstrators “racist.” I thought I’d point out that on CNN, he was quoted as saying, “they wave signs in the air that said we should have buried Obama with Kennedy, those kinds of things are beyond the bounds.” Carter intentionally lied, of course, to make it sound [...]

When people still refuse to see the truth behind the politics, in spite of all the evidence to the contrary, I direct them to a story like this. Ask yourself why North Carolina state senator R.C.

Apparently, in Michigan, babysitting is considered daycare, and therefore requires state licensing and regulation.
After posting about illegal babysitting (childminding) in England, four people sent this recent article about a Michigan woman, Lisa Snyder, who incurred the wrath of the Department of Human Services for watching over her neighbor’s children for the short time period after they [...]

What’s wrong with this picture?
Once the areas are prepared for training, Soldiers will be flown to Troy (Tennessee) via helicopters from Fort Campbell and dropped onto multiple locations within the city, such as they would in a real-world, combat scenario. Once the helicopters land, Soldiers from 2-327 will exit the aircraft and conduct the training [...]

Peter Doshi, a student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, authored a study that challenged the prevailing notion of the CDC on flu pandemics. This article appeared in MIT News in April of 2008.
