Big Pharma’s Knighted Whores
Monday, May 30, 2011 19:39 1 CommentAs always, here’s yet another reason to think for yourself, read, ask questions, and take accountability for you instead of “trusting” that your doctor knows what is best for you because he went to medical school and memorized established protocol. Thanks to John Bolstad for the link.
A Message From Our Sponsors
Thursday, February 24, 2011 5:37 10 CommentsThe American Heart Association fraudulently recommends that people eat a high-carb, high-grain, low-fat diet. Here is a snapshot of its website (below) showing just a couple of the AHA’s many sponsors: Novartis and Schering-Plough. Got a clue yet? The only ad I use to sponsor the paleo (real food) diet is the photo at the [...]
So Many Children, So Many Pills, So Much Profit
Sunday, January 2, 2011 21:57 3 CommentsThis article in the Pharmaceutical Daily (also known as the Wall Street Journal) turned some pill bottles last week: “So Young and So Many Pills: More than 25% of kids and teens in the U.S. take prescriptions on a regular basis.” Frightening and pathetic, but hardly news. I almost never see TV commercials except for [...]
Big Pharma: Keeping You on Dope
Monday, October 18, 2010 19:05 9 CommentsYa gotta love the title of this piece in the Pharmaceutical Daily Journal (that’s the Wall Street Journal) titled, “Adding Predictability to Benefits.” That’s a real fuzzy way of saying ‘We are going to do our bloody best to make sure you don’t stop consuming our lucrative products.’ The Pharmacy-benefit manager Express Scripts Inc., just one of [...]
The CDC is a Criminal Organization
Wednesday, September 8, 2010 22:35 12 CommentsFor over a year, I have followed, documented, and exposed the government’s fear mongering regarding the swine flu pandemic botch. The results were predictable from the start. In June of this year, this spectacular article came and went with barely a mention ’round the Internet. Richard Gale and Gary Null wrote a very important piece, [...]
Viagra – It’s For the Children!
Wednesday, July 28, 2010 11:48 14 CommentsThe story on FOX was prefaced with the remark, “but it’s for the children,” of course. And the media bobbleheads really believe it. And I suppose most Americans believe all of this nonsense they are fed on a daily basis from the Pharmaceutical-Government-Corporatist complex that seeks to keep you a prisoner of its rent-seeking machinations. This story on perthnow (via [...]
“Legal” Drugs Are Not Drugs
Monday, May 24, 2010 7:02 5 CommentsFive months after 32-year-old actress Brittany Murphy was found dead of “natural causes,” her 39-year-old husband was also found dead of, well, natural causes. The pharmaceutical industry is so worshiped and defended, the medical establishment and media refuse to call its drugs “drugs.” Chemical, body-changing pharmaceuticals are a higher form of “medication,” of course, while [...]
Too Big to Nail
Sunday, April 4, 2010 10:13 1 CommentWhat an incredible investigative piece on CNN Health, citing Pfizer’s illegal – according to FDA rules – marketing of the painkiller Bextra. Now I don’t support the notion of the FDA as a legitimate authority, however, the law of the land is enforced with a great big jack boot, except in the case of the [...]
Big Pharma’s Target Market: Anything With a Heartbeat
Sunday, February 21, 2010 11:46 3 CommentsOn the LewRockwell.com blog, David Kramer links to a story about Prozac and its use for ….. dogs. The pharmaceutical companies, once upon a time, had a semi-honorable quest to cure diseases and improve the quality of life for the very ill. That all went away with the proliferation of the almighty state and the [...]
You Are Being Big Pharma’d
Friday, December 25, 2009 14:35 2 CommentsMore Big Pharma antics over at Pharmaceutical Daily – otherwise called the Wall Street Journal. First, there’s a story about Merck & Co’s cholesterol drugs, Vytorin and Zetia, which are, like all of these potent prescription drugs, making people sicker and/or killing them. The FDA had reviewed clinical trials that showed an increased risk of [...]
