And this Pharma-funded betrayal, it turns out, was led by the Democrats. Passed on a 219-212 vote that was only accomplished thanks to closed-door, last-minute secret meetings among the last holdouts, this new legislation puts America under the stranglehold of the medical mafia while doing absolutely nothing to address real health care reform. There is no mention in the bill, for example, of vitamin D for preventing cancer, or orthomolecular medicine for preventing degenerative disease. There's not even a word about protecting health freedom or ending the century of oppression that has been waged against naturopathic practitioners by the AMA, FDA and FTC.
The new legislation does, however, lock in billions of dollars in monopoly profits for the pharmaceutical companies -- the same companies who spent millions of dollars pushing for its passage and who depend on the continuation of sickness and disease for their future profits.
There's only one problem with this health care reform bill: It doesn't reform health care. It has almost nothing to do with health care at all, in fact: It's really more of an effort to expand a broken sick-care system. When faced with the problem that our sick-care system doesn't work, Congress somehow decided that fixing the problem merely involved expanding the failures to include everyone!
And you don't even get a choice in the matter, either. All Americans are now required to pay into a sick-care system of monopolized, pharmaceutical medicine even if they reject that failed system of medicine. So the healthy people who actually take responsibility for their health are financially penalized and forced to subsidize profits for drug companies!

Has America gone mad?
I love America. Or, more accurately, I love what America is supposed to stand for: Freedom, opportunity, abundance, free choice, diversity...But I'm increasingly noticing that America's leaders don't believe in those ideals at all. They are betraying the American people by selling out our futures to the corporate monopolists. They are turning America into a corporatocracy, and the passage of this monopoly sick-care system is yet another perfect example of just how easily our own lawmakers will sell out the People just to appease the powerful chemical industrialists who dominate medicine today.
They have sold out our futures to keep themselves in power, and isn't that the worst kind of betrayal of all? People's live are on the line here. While people like myself and many other health freedom champions are fighting for health freedom and an end to human suffering among our fellow brothers and sisters, we've got our national leaders essentially aiming the artillery at our own people and yelling "Fire!" Through their actions with this health care reform bill, they are forcing people into circumstances that are going to cost countless lives and many trillions of dollars in wasted expenditures and lost economic productivity.
Our Congress has betrayed us (yet again). I believe that with perhaps the exception of Rep. Ron Paul, every single Senator and House Representative should be thrown out of office at the next election, stripped of their power and sent home to face their home-district families that they have now doomed to a lifetime of sickness, disease and pharmaceutical toxicity. Our national leaders claim to be voting on Health Care but what they really delivered was Hell Care, because dying of cancer while on chemotherapy while no doctor can legally tell you that vitamin D prevents 4 out of 5 cancers is, indeed, a living hell (or dying hell, in this case).
And speaking of Hell, the dark energies that have been provoked and called upon in this battle for pharmaceutical dominance over the "disease management" of the American population almost seems downright demonic, as if some evil power from other world had been summoned into Washington D.C. to ensure the passage of this legislation that practically guarantees another generation of pain and suffering at the hands of conventional medicine.
All the health solutions that really work -- nutritional medicine, orthomolecular therapies, chiropractic medicine, Traditional Chinese Medicine and so on -- have been locked out of the system while those therapies that promote a lifetime of disease have been locked in. And in this way, our Congress has now made certain that America as we know it today will not survive another generation -- because no nation can achieve greatness when its people are drowning in toxic chemicals and degenerative disease.
We've got to save the America we love
America doesn't need more drugs, more chemotherapy, more mammograms, more vaccines and more nutritionally-ignorant doctors pushing more poison pills onto more uninformed patients. What this country needs is a grassroots health revolution that throws out the broken, failed system of pharma-medicine that doesn't work and replaces it with a new system of healing, nutrition, patient education and personal health responsibility that would slash our health care costs and set our nation on a new path of health and prosperity.This goal can never be accomplished when the people writing our laws are determined to protect the financial interests of the very industry that depends on sickness and disease for its profits. When it came down to a choice between the People and the corporations, our U.S. Congress chose the corporations!
I love America, and I'd love to see its health restored. But more importantly, I would love to see the American people rise up against their betrayers in Washington, peacefully sweep them out of office at the next election and make a real effort to restore the rights and freedoms that are outlined in the United States Constitution -- a document that seems to have been written off by the Washington jackals who, themselves, are suffering from degenerative mental disorders and psychotropic drug side effects.

I couldn't agree more with everything you just said. Well done.
ReplyDeleteI understand why the new health reform is upsetting to those in the wellness world, I am part of that world and can see it. However, I guess my mentality is that congress isn't the one prescribing the drugs nor are they the ones out giving the information to the people about what makes and keeps you healthy, its the practitioners within the medical field that perpetuate this cycle of sick care. Our 'healthcare' systems influence starts and ends with the people who provide the care. The ability to access that care has only become more available for many who have never had access because of this bill. I realize that access has not been extended to wellness care, but once again, it could be. If only our medical community were able to come down from their throne and really learn about health and how the wellness community NEEDS to be an integral part of it all. I guess that's just my two cents worth...what do you think?
ReplyDeleteReilly Family, I agree with you 100%. Although I don't absolve Congress of all responsibility. Yes, it is the doctor's job to learn about, teach, and implement health and wellness; but, it is congress' job to represent the people and approach "healthcare" from a non-biased perspective. It is quite obvious that non-bias does not exist. There is a huge bias toward serving the interests of Big Pharma and the Insurance companies. This bias trickles down to affect the doctors by allowing things such as kickbacks and other rewards such as free vacations, etc to occur based on doctor performance in regards to number of prescriptions written. This system, in general, inhibits doctors from going out and doing the additional learning and research it takes to spread the wellness message because that takes extra work, time, money, and brain power. Whereas sitting right where they are and continuing to do the status quo, i.e. write prescriptions and be rewarded, is far easier. But again, as you so astutely pointed out, if we as doctors, especially those of us who are wellness practitioners, did a better job of uniting and working to educate not only our patients, but also our congressional representatives, about wellness and its benefits for the health of the people and the financial health of the nation, we would not be in the situation that we are currently in.
ReplyDeleteThat is a very good point about the trickling down effect, I hadn't considered that. I also had not thought about the kick-back aspect of everything. We live in a very complex society, I just wish things would become simple once again. Where doctors could be just that, a doctor and do what they probably started out wanting to do. Help people be healthy.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you and wish we could return to the days of doctors truly caring about people's health. And we can, let's stop wishing and start DOING...Role Modeling...making it happen.
